melissaanneliz Oct 1 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A2: When it comes to behavior, you have to separate. It isn't the student, it what they have learned to do in order to cope. #txeduchat

ToshMcGaughy Oct 1 @ 9:12 PM EDT

#txeduchat A2: The dance is interpreted and performed by the dancer. If growing teachers is the dance, is the administrator the dancer?

Jaibyrd123 Oct 1 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2: Is the supervising the dance or is coaching? What do you think? #txeduchat

Jaibyrd123 Oct 1 @ 9:13 PM EDT

YES - we may know many different dances, but it doesn't change who we are at our core #txeduchat

Q3: Coach vs. Mentor vs. Supervisor...what's the difference? #txeduchat

lm4kids Oct 1 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A2 Yes, it can be done, but maybe not easy. I have had administrators who I leaned on a lot for coaching bc the trust was there. #txeduchat

lana_cecil Oct 1 @ 9:18 PM EDT

#A2. It takes a noun (subject) and a verb (action) to not have a fragment. Separate? Sure? Function? Not really. #txeduchat

igsandate Oct 1 @ 9:19 PM EDT

A3: Show vs Lead vs Manage #txeduchat

lana_cecil Oct 1 @ 9:19 PM EDT

Jaibyrd123 Oct 1 @ 9:20 PM EDT

a3: Difference is in the "verb" #txeduchat

a3: Difference is in the "verb" #txeduchat

igsandate Oct 1 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: A supervisor MUST be a coach or we are always replacing/hiring - spinning our wheels - we must work smarter not harder #txeduchat

misskaitiesmith Oct 1 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A4: Depends on whether those they are in charge of buy into what they're saying. No trust=no progress. #txeduchat

melissaanneliz Oct 1 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4: Absolutely & the best supervisors are great coaches! Great leaders want to help teachers be the best so students get the best #txeduchat

lana_cecil Oct 1 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4. Absolutely. But they must understand that trust is key. Ts must not fear. Fear erodes trust and ruins culture #txeduchat

jiffypopp20800 Oct 1 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4:Absolutely! Our building admin jump in to model in the moment-We all learn from each other & are responsible to each other #txeduchat

Jaibyrd123 Oct 1 @ 9:28 PM EDT

Does the fact that appraisal comes into play as a supervisor affect the relationship and culture? #txeduchat

yankee_todd Oct 1 @ 9:28 PM EDT

As long as trust is there ... everyone is evaluated somehow #txeduchat

In reply to @Jaibyrd123

How does appraisal, policy, and compliance impact that trust? #txeduchat

ChristinaAronen Oct 1 @ 9:39 PM EDT

We put 1 up, encouraged a few to be brave to open their doors, covered other classes to allow Ts to ck it out. More Ts joined in! #txeduchat

In reply to @Isham_Literacy, @TracieGCain

#txeduchat A5: That takes the trust down a notch, but when coaching isn't affecting change, admin must go another route.

Jaibyrd123 Oct 1 @ 9:41 PM EDT

a5: I can start with an open ended question, but once it becomes an issue of S safety or policy, the supervisor hat goes on. #txeduchat

TracieGCain Oct 1 @ 9:41 PM EDT

One difference between a supervisor and a coach is that a coach does not usually set the vision while a sup does. #txeduchat

jiffypopp20800 Oct 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

Α5:Admin are ultimately responsible to ensure Ss get the best education from Ts. If Ts drop that ball, admin must get in the game #txeduchat

igsandate Oct 1 @ 9:42 PM EDT

A5: Yes, when the priority is student safety be a supervisor. Then follow-up with coaching and feedback. #txeduchat

ToshMcGaughy Oct 1 @ 9:43 PM EDT

#txeduchat A5: Different types of coaching could be tried that are more directive. TNTP Core Rubric?

Isham_Literacy Oct 1 @ 9:43 PM EDT
