Effectiveness of Practice-Based Coaching (PBC)
This 3-minute video focuses on PBC as an effective approach to professional development. Dr. Pat Snyder provides a definition of the model and discusses research studies that compare PBC to other forms of professional development.
Practice-Based Coaching: Equity and Access
In this 2-minute video, Dr. Kathleen Artman Meeker discusses how PBC can support equity in early learning programs. She describes how PBC can help adults by offering a safe place to reflect on issues of equity, access, and diversity—especially when responding to children’s challenging behavior.
These video excerpts are available for a short time on this website. For permanent access or the ability to view more of our resources, please consider joining the EarlyEdU Alliance®.
