  • Building Your Capacity as Instructional Leaders - Creating Feedback that Feeds Forward: During these sessions observers/coaches will work with Amy to build capacity and improve practice in a) observation and evidence collection, b) analysis of educator effectiveness, and c) methods for providing effective feedback, all towards a calibration of practice.
