Cognitive Coaching Course in Suzhou

The legendary Dr. Ochan Powell will offer Cognitive Coaching in Suzhou this year, with part one happening October 18-21 and part two to come in April.

“Research indicates that teaching is a complex intellectual activity and that teachers who think at higher levels produce students who are higher achieving, more cooperative, and better problem solvers. It is the invisible skills of teaching, the thinking processes that underlie instructional decisions, which produce superior instruction. Cognitive Coaching is a research-based model that capitalizes upon and enhances teachers’ cognitive processes.”

Please see Kasson (also a CC course with Ochan alum) for more information. If you are keen, please speak with Jacqui or Sara, then complete the PLA Tracking Form. The cost of the course is 6000 RMB which is professional learning allowance-eligible.
