A Glance at Coaching • The cognitive coaching model is predicated on a set of values, maps, and tools, that when combined with non-judgmental ways of being and working with others, invites shaping and re-shaping of thinking and problem solving capabilities. • (Cognitive Shift)
Planning Conversation • Occurs before a colleague conducts or participates in an event, resolves a challenge, or attempts a task. The coach may or may not be present during the event or available for follow-up conversation.
Reflecting Conversation • Occurs after a colleague conducts or participates in an event, resolves a challlenge, or completes a task. The coach may not have been present at or participated in the event.
Problem Solving Conversation • Occurs when a colleague feels stuck, helpless, unclear, or lacking in resourcefulness; experiences a crisis; or requests external assistance from a mediator.

Positive Presuppositions • As you reflect upon the lesson, • As you examine the data, • Base upon past successful experiences, • As an experienced educator, • As a successful teacher,
Putting It All Together • As you reflect, what might be some of the indicators that your lesson was successful? • As you examine the data, what are some of the similarities that are emerging? • Based upon your past successful experiences, what might be some of the indicators that this student might be struggling?
Reflecting On Reflections • Essential to Professional Growth and Development • Amplified when done with others • Enhanced when they are focused and structured • Enriched when all members consciously use the tools of inquiry and non-judgmental response behaviors
Baby Steps • Trust building begins with the first encounter • Be interested, listen, and be non-evaluative • Build a positive relationship with strong/open lines of communication • Grow together
