    27. More Q/A with Diane & Brandon

    It has been a while since Diane and Brandon have done a Q/A episode. What better time than the last week of school as we are wrapping up our year and thinking about/planning the next? Questions came in from our Facebook group, as well as The Hub for Student-Centered Coaching. Questions ranged from celebrating success to culture within a building. We hope this finds all of you well...enjoy your summer with family and friends!

    [REPOST] 22. Chris Cutrona

    We wanted to rerelease this episode with Chris Cutrona, CEO of EdSightful, from July 18, 2024. If you didn't get a chance to listen, we wanted to put it in front of you again. If you tuned in last summer and were able to utilize the Results-Based Coaching Tool (RBCT) this school year, listening again can be valuable as well as you now enter this conversation through a different lens. Regardless, we hope you enjoy!  ------- We've talked about measuring the impact of coaching using the Results-Based Coaching Tool (RBCT), but we've never talked about it like this! Joining Diane and Brandon on this episode is Chris Cutrona, CEO of EdSightful to discuss how he has taken the RBCT and transformed it into an amazing dashboard for coaches to utilize to measure their impact. Chris and Diane also just released a blogpost on the same topic that includes links to demos, where you can see it in action as well. We hope you enjoy this conversation! EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!!! If you're interested in purchasing the RBCT dashboard, you can now contact the EdSightful team directly on their website or by emailing them at chris.cutrona@edsightful.com. Diane also referenced a previous blogpost (Student-Centered Coaching Cycles) in the episode. For all blogposts, don't forget to check them out at dianesweeney.com!

    There's nothing better than sitting down for a conversation with someone to talk about their passion! Amber Birch-Trujillo's happens to be the topic of the "Asset-Based Mindset." It comes out in work. It comes out in her friendships. It is the very essence of who Amber is. This conversation has already caused many changes in my (Brandon) work with teachers and students, and we know that it will do the same for you as well!

    25. Jenni Donohoo and Glenn Forbes

    "When teachers believe, student achieve!" It was this mantra that ignited Glenn Forbes, principal from Queensland, Australia and his pursuit to learn more about Collective Teacher Efficacy. Through reaching out to Jenni Donohoo, best-selling author and learning facilitator, and learning more from her, his passion continue to grow and ultimately led to the much anticipated release of their new book, Collective Impact! Join Diane and Brandon as they dig into the new text with Jenni and Glenn and uncover so many opportunities for "slaying the enemies!" We hope you enjoy!

    24. Brittany Gonser

    You know that feeling you get when you see something successful and you just have to tell others about it? That's how we feel when we partner with Brittany Gonser and her team of instructional coaches in the Shawnee Mission School District. Join Brittany, Director of Professional Learning at SMSD, as she sits down with us and discusses so many factors, from a systems point of view all the way down to how her past experiences shape the decisions she makes, that has led to their team being what it is today.  We hope this episode finds you well as you enter the holiday season! Enjoy!

    23. Sarah Auld

    As the school year is getting underway around the world, many of you are entering coaching partnerships with teachers who are in year one with a new resource/curriculum. As instructional coaches, do we need to alter what we do or how we exist within our coaching work? Sarah Auld (teammate of the beloved Ben Scott from Ep. 1), from Battleground, WA joins us to talk about coaching in a resource adoption year. Through her reflective nature, she shares so many insights that will be beneficial to all coaches, not just those with a new resource.  Don't forget to join the conversation on FB: "A Community for Student-Centered Coaching www.dianesweeney.com

    And we're back!!! Spring has been busy, but we wanted to get this out to you all before the end of the year. Tiffany Dowling, a K-3 Reading Specialist in Enterprise, AL, joins Diane and Brandon to discuss how she utilizes the Results-Based Coaching Tool to enhance her coaching partnerships with teachers (and maybe even students?)! While the RBCT was the topic of the conversation, it is full of words of wisdom that Tiffany shares about coaching and learning. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it!
