TAI: Turnaround Arts Initiative. Harry & Rosemary Wong: Effective Teaching. The Lasting Impact of Instructional Coaching Although this article is about the coach, David Ginsburg, it is more about the word that describes what type of coach he is—an instructional coach. How teachers instruct will determine how well and how much students learn.
Instruction is defined by Robert Marzano as, “It is what gets taught.” And Mike Schmoker says, “Lay out a sound set of standards and then actually teach these standards and there will be an immense increase in levels of achievement almost immediately.” Cause-Effect Coaching David uses a “cause-effect coaching” method. He shows teachers what they are doing or are not doing (the cause) and how it is related to what the students are learning or not learning (the effect). The purpose is to show the teacher that the students may not be the cause of why the students are not learning. True, many kids come from a poverty-stricken and dysfunctional family, but that is not something a teacher can change or do anything about.
