There are those that don’t understand the power of reflective
observation. They mistakenly believe
that there is nothing to learn after a few cursory visits to a classroom. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the most important key to building
insight and deeper understanding about teaching and learning is to engage in a
steady volume of daily classroom observation.
What we have learned over the past ten years is that after about every
300 classroom observations, the observer will notice, discern, and/or learn
something new... something that was previously hidden. It is the “Eureka”
moment, and there is nothing else like it in instructional leadership.
In this pursuit, there is the PowerWalks Legendary Leadership
Badge that is earned every 300th PowerWalks Observation. The
following instructional leaders have already earned the Legendary Leadership
Badge for the 2016/2017 school year (as of 1/31/17).
