Goals for Training and
Support
The Kentucky Center for Mathematics supports
Mathematics Coaches by providing high quality training and sustained
support for professional growth in:
·
Developing a coach’s identity as a mediator of thinking
for individuals and for groups.
·
Developing a coach’s capacity to effectively
balance their roles of coach, consultant, and collaborator.
·
Developing a coach’s facilitative skills and
leadership abilities in order to support change within their schools
and/or districts.
Our Training Partners
Mathematics coaches work to create the culture of professional learning
and reflection on practice that are necessary for teachers to make the
school-wide improvements in math instruction that result in increased
student achievement. The coach’s role is complex and demanding,
requiring knowledge and expertise in mathematics teaching, interpersonal
relationships, adult learning, and systemic change. The coach’s role is
also continuously evolving as coaches navigate change within their
school organizations and grow professionally in their partnerships with
teachers. We’ve joined with the quality training programs below to
prepare and support our coaches in this challenging and rewarding work.
-
The Center for Cognitive Coaching
will conduct a variety of Proficiency Modules for our
sophomore and our senior coaches. Cognitive Coaching is the
coaching model we have adopted in Kentucky for our mathematics
coaches.
-
The Center for Research on Learning
will conduct a two-day course on Coaching Classroom Management
for our sophomore coaches.
-
Edvantia
will conduct a three-day course for sophomore coaches called
Questioning and Understanding to Improve Learning and Thinking
(QUILT).
