Fix Your Tier 1 Instruction: Applying the Science of Good Instruction to the Art of School Leadership - Paperback

Much professional learning focuses on interventions or isolated strategies without strengthening Tier 1 instruction--the everyday experience of every learner. David Corvi addresses this gap by presenting a practical, research-aligned instructional framework--originally designed for K-12 classrooms--and reimagining its use in adult learning and instructional leadership.

This first-of-its-kind book repositions school and district leaders as the teachers of teachers, providing a field-tested framework you can use to design professional learning, lead classroom observations, coach educators, and build a culture of collective efficacy. The framework emphasizes clarity of learning objectives, engagement strategies, instructional delivery, practice opportunities, checks for understanding, and targeted feedback--all transferable from student to adult learning. Importantly, coaching and evaluation are aligned as integrated leadership functions, not competing ones. Throughout, there are reflection prompts, case studies, checklists, self-assessments, and other tools that can be implemented immediately.

With this book's unique way of mapping a research-based Tier 1 instructional framework to the structure and delivery of professional learning, you will be able help all of your teachers grow--and their students will grow as a result.
