While instructional coaching is largely accepted and used as a professional learning support for instructional improvement, we still need to specify the conditions, practices, and tools that help make instructional coaching productive. This symposium will explore four studies of content-focused coaching and teacher learning across a spectrum of grade levels (elementary through secondary), across disciplines (mathematics, science, social studies) and across scales (single classrooms to school-wide systemic improvement) to identify, examine, and compare conditions, practices, and tools that support coaches’ work with teachers on core instructional practices with the aim of supporting teachers to take up ambitious instructional practices. This symposium seeks to more clearly specify how coaching can be designed to support teacher learning and instructional improvement.
