How do you build credibility in your role?
Self-Efficacy “Refers to beliefs in one’s capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to produce given attainments” Bandura, 1977
Why Self-efficacy Matters Teachers with a Scaffolding sense of self- highly likely to efficacy (.63) be implemented Scaffolding increases student learning Scaffolding Teachers w/ low unlikely to be self-efficacy implemented Strategies are unlikely to be initiated unless teachers believe they have the skills and capabilities to selectively support their students where needed. Zee & Koomen (2016).

Collective Efficacy CL. p. 43
“The connections between collective efficacy beliefs and student outcomes depend in part on: • Reciprocal relationships among these collective efficacy beliefs • Teachers’ personal sense of efficacy, • Teachers’ professional practice • Teacher’s influence over instructionally relevant school decisions.” Goddard, Roger, Wayne K. Hoy, and Anita Woolfolk Hoy. (2003)
Ubuntu – I am because we are.
Collective Efficacy “The perception that a performance has been successful tends to raise Mastery Experiences efficacy beliefs, contributing to the expectation that performance will be proficient in the future. The perception that one’s performance has been a failure tends to lower efficacy beliefs, contributing to the expectation that future performances will also be inept.” Vicarious Experiences We learn when things are modeled to use. However, that person modeling must have credibility in our eyes. Social Persuasion “Social persuasion may entail encouragement or specific performance feedback from a supervisor or a colleague or it may involve discussions in the teachers’ lounge, community, or media about the ability of teachers to influence students.” Affective States “The level of arousal, either of anxiety or excitement, adds to individual’s perceptions of self-capability or incompetence. We postulate that, just as individuals react to stress, so do organizations.” “Organizations with strong beliefs in group capability can tolerate pressure and crises and continue to function without debilitating consequences. Goddard, Roger, Wayne K. Hoy, and Anita Woolfolk Hoy. (2004).

Professional Learning & Development CL. p. 99
Professional Learning – is often like student learning — something that is deliberately structured and increasingly accepted because it can be linked to measurable outcomes. Hargreaves & Fullan (2017). Call to Action: Bringing the Profession Back In. Learning Forward. cc: Daniel Y. Go - https://www.flickr.com/photos/84172943@N00
Professional Development – involves many aspects of learning but may also involve developing mindfulness, team building and team development. Hargreaves & Fullan (2017). Call to Action: Bringing the Profession Back In. Learning Forward. cc: Daniel Y. Go - https://www.flickr.com/photos/84172943@N00
Is your professional learning and development at the surface, deep or transfer level? cc: Daniel Y. Go - https://www.flickr.com/photos/84172943@N00
Feedback CL. p. 123
Feedback only sticks when it’s wrapped around a goal (learning intention)… and success criteria. cc: UNDP in Europe and Central Asia - https://www.flickr.com/photos/46920115@N03
“ Interesting. When we give feedback, we notice that the receiver isn’t good at receiving it. When we receive feedback, we notice that the giver isn’t ” good at giving it. Douglas Stone & Sheila Heen cc: UNDP in Europe and Central Asia - https://www.flickr.com/photos/46920115@N03
3 FeedbackTruth Triggers Triggers –(Stone & the Upset about Heen) substance. It’s off, unhelpful or simply untrue Relationship Triggers – Tripped by the particular person. It’s what we believe about the giver (no credibility!). Identity Triggers – It’s hurting the identity we set for ourselves. Stone and Heen (2014).

Assessment-Capable Learners CL. p. 67
On average teachers ask 200 questions per day and students ask 2 questions per student per week. Janet Clinton
80% of teaching involves the teacher speaking and students listening, that language rich environment can help to build those language areas that are not as mature among children of poverty, as long as the language level the teacher uses matches that of the student with limited language experiences. Burns, Martha (2019).
Students Know… ❑What they are learning ❑Why they are learning it ❑How they got there ❑Where they are going next
Students need an emotional connection to their school community… Use artifacts they understand • Music • Pop culture • Social media Understand cultural nuances
Teacher – Student Relationships
Mindfulness
Family Engagement CL. p. 150
What About the Families? • Do you talk at them or with them? • Do you use language they understand? • When we ask “What about parent accountability” do we understand the full meaning of that questions? cc: علي- ali - https://www.flickr.com/photos/12495850@N05
