Observations don't have to be dreaded. They can lead to what John Hattie and Michael Fullan say TBO is, "Collective teacher efficacy in action," and, "One of the biggest gains to improving teaching and learning that exists; it shows us what a culture of trust is." This session introduces TBO and its strengths based, pedagogically focused approach to teacher observation—digging into culture and the "How's" of using observations to nurture a supportive environment where teachers feel inspired and valued. During this highly interactive workshop anchored in the core tenets of Trust-Based Observations, Craig, and the audience will discuss, explore and learn how to use observations to create a culture of trust that improves teaching, learning and retention.
