STUDY GUIDE SERIES: LOOKING AT TEACHING THROUGH THE LENS OF THE FFT CLUSTERS

Each Study Guide provides a multi-step process to examine, reflect on, discuss, and apply learning from the contents of an Instructional Set. Each guide provides the following steps:

1. Lesson Overview
2. Preparation and Questions
3. Viewing the Classroom Video
4. Selected Highlights of the Lesson Video
5. Viewing the Teacher Commentary
6. Questions, Applications, and Discussion

For each Instructional Set, there is an extensive list of evidence gleaned from the video and artifacts that is aligned to the FFT Clusters by master coders Videos from the Resource Links section may need to be downloaded first to view.

Each Study Guide includes two versions for each Instructional Set:

• One version for communities of teachers
• Another version for communities of instructional coaches or teacher mentors.

The first five steps of the process are identical in both versions, and were designed to focus on examining the instruction taking place in the classroom video. Step 6 is a group activity focusing on analyses of the featured Instructional Set and applications of learning.

Each of the 8 Study Guide sets are available through Amazon, and a link for their purchase is provided below.
