What teaching practices have the greatest impact on student learning?

Jim Knight and his researchers at the Instructional Coaching Group have been exploring this question for over a decade. The result, described in his High-Impact Instruction: A Framework for Great Teaching, is a framework focused on content planning, formative assessment, engaging instruction, and community building, known as the Big Four.

Whether you’re a coach supporting teachers in their everyday practice or a teacher wanting to increase your effect on student learning, you will learn about the research-based, practical, Big Four high-yield teaching strategies at this institute.
