Adam,
Thanks for forwarding the article. I would not have seen it otherwise.
It is correct in identifying a trend. I heard from some teachers in a
Texas district who were newly appointed "helper teachers." Part of their
training this fall was participation in an Annenberg Channel
workshop. The Massachusetts Department of Education is sponsoring a few
mathematics teachers to serve as coaches to teachers from districts with
low scores in that discipline.
I can certainly imagine the positive impact on classroom teachers, as
well as the coaches themselves.
