Break-Out Session 1.5: Using Video-Enhanced Observation and Feedback to Transform Instructional Habits and School Culture
Presenters: Michael Fuga, Matthew Hickson
District: Durham Public Schools
Hosted by: Sibme
Research shows student achievement is largely linked to educator effectiveness, but school leaders face shrinking budgets, chaotic schedules, and limited resources to grow their teachers. Attend a session led by an innovative administrative team from from a Title I Turnaround School in Durham Public Schools where they will share how they overcame these obstacles with classroom video observations to support their School Improvement Plan (SIP). Participants will learn practical ways to incorporate video observation and feedback into their school culture, eliminate fear, and make video feedback a genuine and rewarding experience. Bring questions relevant to discover how these strategies support a broader strategy for improving school culture and student outcomes.
