Learners - This is a sample lesson plan that a coach will
likely use when you do the "Models of Practice"
skill. While other lesson plans will vary, there will always
be modeling and feedback by the coach similar to what is here.
|
| Prepare: |
From the daily training schedule, identify the
skill practice for that day and the context in which it will
be practiced
Post assessment criteria for that skill as well as feedback
guidelines |
| |
|
| Explain: |
Explain the relevance of the skill being learned and engage
the class in discussion
- Why is this skill important? Why are we practicing this
skill in this context?
- What personal attributes should be emphasized with this
skill and this context
Share a personal experience you had when you saw this skill
work well and state why it was effective
|
| |
|
| Demonstrate: |
Provide live or video demonstration of the skill to be practiced
Discuss with the class how the demonstration did or did not
meet the criteria - discuss alternate ways of responding to
the situation
Demonstrate the scenario again - this time use a different
approach
|
| |
|
| Articulate: |
Arrange class into groups of 2 - 4
Allow each member of the group to practice the skill given
the contexts you select
|
| |
|
| Feedback: |
As class members are practicing the skills, move
around the room and coach as needed |
| |
|
| Repeat: |
Repeat 'articulate' and 'feedback' as necessary.
If there is a lot of time permitted on the schedule do this
exercise 3-6 times. If learners are struggling with the practice,
stop and re-explain or demonstrate as necessary |
| |
|
| Reflect: |
With the class, disucss the experience - go back
to the questions in the Explain section - ask class members
to share their experiences. If the experience had any profound
effects on class members - perhaps allow a few minutes then
for them to write reflection statements while the experience
is fresh on their minds |
