Advancing the Three Minute Walk Through
Item # 177
By Carolyn Downey, Betty Steffy, William Poston Jr. and Fenwick English
In 2004, The Three-Minute Classroom Walk-Through introduced educators to the Downey Walk-Through, a practical approach to coaching and supervision that is now widely accepted and used. Offering an expanded examination of the Downey Walk-Through, this sequel to the bestseller focuses on the second part of the walk-through-the reflective follow-up conversation-and clarifies many of the common misconceptions and misapplications of the approach.
The authors illustrate how leaders can use observations from the walk-through to engage in professional conversations and encourage teachers to reflect on and improve their practice. Offering extended examples, activities, and guidelines for changing schools one teacher at a time, Advancing the Three-Minute Walk-Through shows school leaders how to
Provide effective follow-up discourse without criticizing or demoralizing teachers
Build collegial and respectful relationships with faculty members
Help teachers become continuously improving professionals
Foster a collaborative process between principals, teachers, and other instructional leaders
Now educators can enrich their professional interchange as they work together to evaluate, redefine, and strengthen best practices for the classroom!
