Time for the LAST SESSION OMG! Put me in coach, let’s talk coaching models. #atia2021

I love this interaction. She showed a live time result of a form asking our positions, and this is the audience defining “coach.” #atia2021

Authentic. Collaborative. Help others reach their goals. Leave your island and perspective and sit with theirs. Pre-set answers may not meet needs or be overall best. Tell what’s best and things can get abandoned, less buy in. #atia2021

Change science says giving answers leads to less ownership. This is not how many professionals and experts work, and it’s a shift. Expert vs collaborative. #atia2021

Have to start with building trust and relationship. Give literature, train when asked, etc. Not give and take, just resource sharing. Doesn’t always translate into using new skills or change behaviour. I feel like I’m a little stuck here with early literacy learning. #atia2021

There’s a vulnerability for caregivers/educators to ask or admit they need help. This is so true. #atia2021

Comment: when there’s is low pressure, people are more open to learning. This is so important. #atia2021

Teacher type coaching: bringing stakeholder to the coach’s goals. One more person telling them what to do. Another comment: providing space for people to be comfortable enough to say “this isn’t helping.” Has helped so much. #atia2021

Senner and Baud!! Hi, Jill. :) pros of teacher center: increases knowledge, builds relationship. But they might not fully understand the why, which is hugely important for kids and adults. #atia2021

Student centered coaching: stakeholders seen as skilled and valuable and can be even better. Focus on student outcomes. Stakeholders drive the agenda. True partnership. Drop preconceived notion of what they SHOULD be doing. Not prescriptive. Support thinking/decisions #atia2021

Love joint planning—she says even her 4-6year old clients know their goals, and some come to sessions with their own plan for the time. She embeds her goals in theirs. So powerful. #atia2021

I feel like I can use these ideas in my storytimes. My anxiety means I have a script, with small amounts of time for discussions. My colleague will upend everything and let kids take the lead. I could do better with that. #atia2021

I’m imaging storytimes meant for caregivers to to practice early literacy skills in storytime like ways, led by their goals for their kids and the kid’s interests. I don’t know. Spitballing. I think there’s a way. #atia2021

Live feedback! This is so great, I want to do this going forward. #atia2021
