a research-based, field-tested, and experience-honed process that captures
the essentials of the best educational environments. In contrast to
restrictive pedagogical prescriptions or formulas, FIT Teaching empowers
teachers to adapt the most effective planning, instructional, and
assessment practices to their particular context in order to move their
students' learning from where it is now to where it should be.
examine what makes great teachers great, and
share how
educators at all grade levels and all levels of experience are
taking intentional steps toward enhanced professional practice.

As an instructional leadership director in the Tulsa,
Okla.,
school district, Julio César Contreras is redefining what it means
to
supervise principals. He eschews micromanaging school leaders
and instead works
alongside them to help them meet the goals of
the district's long-range plan
and to improve teacher performance
in their schools. He holds frequent
meetings with principals to
discuss and improve their work, visits classrooms
constantly, and
strategically uses data about classroom performance to help
school
leaders make decisions. In this webinar, Contreras, a 2016 Education
Week Leaders To Learn From honoree, will detail the strategies he
uses to
partner with principals to help them grow professionally, as
well as support
their work to improve teaching and learning in their
schools.
Guests:
Julio César Contreras, instructional
leadership director, Tulsa Public
Schools, Okla.
Jody Parsons, principal, Hale
Junior High School, Tulsa, Okla.
This webinar will be moderated by Andrew Ujifusa,
