This practical and comprehensive guide takes advantage of new methods and tools to capture teaching and learning and a broad base of current research to impact teacher thinking and actions. Written for instructional coaches, administrators, supervisors, and individual teachers, it includes • guidance on how to get started and how to engage in nonjudgmental and descriptive analysis • scaffolding to counter anxiety and resistance, and to cultivate a growth mindset. • chapters on specific contexts including developmental, evaluative, and problems of practice. • guidance for observation in specific grade bands and for specific student populations. • templates and links to videos for video analysis tasks, step-by-step process outlines, real-world vignettes and application questions. Drawing on broad evidence of the impact of video on teaching, this is the guide for maximizing this powerful form of professional learning.
