Doug Lemov on the Power of Teacher Practice
Tuesday, Nov. 13, 2012, 12 to 1 p.m. ET
Teaching is a performance profession, says Doug Lemov, author of the influential Teach Like a Champion. And like other performers—musicians, athletes, actors, etc.—teachers need extensive and focused practice opportunities before "going live." Yet the majority of professional development experiences for teachers include useful advice and materials—and almost no follow-up practice.
In this live chat, Lemov answered questions on why practice is critical for effective teaching and what steps educators can take to integrate it into their work. In doing so, he explored themes from his newest book, Practice Perfect, such as how to design successful practice sessions, the role of feedback, and ways to instill a culture of practice at your school.
