About Video Peer Coaching

This course is designed to help teachers engage in rigorous, collaborative conversations that utilise the power of video.

While coaching is recognised as one of the most important and essential means for improving professional practice, not all schools have the resources for instructional coaches or leaders to work directly with all teachers in an ongoing way.

This course is designed to introduce coaching skills to all teaching staff so that they can work collaboratively with one another. The fact that coaching conversations involve reflecting on videos of teaching practice helps to ground goals in reality and keeps the process non-evaluative, rigorous and safe.

Learning Design

At GCI, we believe that we act our way into learning rather than learn our way into acting. With this principle in mind, all of our courses have a strong emphasis on practice.

GCI courses are designed by educators for educators with a commitment to interactive and engaging learning experiences delivered by skilled facilitators with extensive experience in education.

When we are engaged in praxis we are reflecting in action – taking what we are learning and applying it in real-life situations. Our in-person and online courses enable praxis through a ‘coaching approach’ to facilitation combined with a range of thoughtfully designed adult learning experiences including:

individual and group reflection activities
co-operative learning tasks
practise opportunities using real workplace scenarios
modelling
observation and feedback
debrief sessions

The spaced learning design built into the Video Peer Coaching course provides the opportunity for participants to apply skills and techniques in their context between sessions.

The Video Peer Coaching course is available in a range of delivery patterns:

Two full-days spaced (in-person or online)
Six 2-hour workshops spread over a number of days/weeks (online only)
Blended option with one full-day in-person and remainder online
