Lessons That Last
Fastballs, Feedback, and Being Coachable
How do we help students value and use feedback? How do we help them develop a work ethic and commitment to continuous improvement? In this episode, Julie and Laura talk about the power of using a coaching approach. Gino's story about Mr. Gobel is the focus of the episode, and it's a reminder of the importance of challenging students to keep getting a little better. If you've been thinking about how to teach life lessons in your content, this episode is for you! And remember... sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes it rains.
