Coaching Teacher-Writers : Practical Steps to Nurture Professional Writing Paperback / softback
by Troy Hicks, Anne Elrod Whitney, James Fredricksen, Leah Zuidema
Paperback / softback
Description
When teachers write, good things can happen; writing helps educators to better understand themselves, as well as students, parents, and colleagues.
This practical book illustrates how to encourage, lead, and sustain teacher-writers, especially in group contexts.
In contrast to guides on writing and teacher research, this book is designed for those who support teacher-writers, such as teacher educators and literacy coaches.
The authors offer descriptions of key practices they have developed over years of coaching, teaching, and collaborating with K–12 teachers who write about classroom instruction, teacher research, or advocacy for better policy and pedagogy.
Knowing firsthand just how hard writing can be for teachers, they provide a repertoire of strategies to elicit writing, to support teachers as they write, to find audiences for the teachers’ work, and much more.
