Communication is a vital skill for school principals, who need to share their vision and mission with various stakeholders. To ensure that communication is safe and meaningful, principals should use a collaborative process that involves listening, feedback, and dialogue. By doing so, principals can build trust, respect, and alignment among all members of the school community.

Application of Walkthroughs to Schools Focusing on Explicit Instruction Practices
Educators all have the same goal—to help students make the maximum possible academic gains in a positive and respectful environment that promotes success and nurtures their desire to learn. In this series of six webinars, the participants will gain valuable knowledge from the research and work of Dr. Anita Archer and Dr. Charles Hughes on Explicit Instruction. Explicit instruction is a structured, systematic, and effective methodology for teaching academic skills. It is considered an unambiguous and direct approach that includes instructional design and delivery procedures. The majority of information will be shared by one of Dr. Archer’s trainees, Gina Fulton. This fifth webinar of six is titled Application of Walk-Throughs to Schools Focusing on Explicit Instruction Practices.
