Coaching And Teaching

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: education-learning  ·  Last updated:
Coaching as teaching — John Wooden's Pyramid of Success, practice design, feedback quality, instructional economy, and the craft of deliberate skill development. Covers the difference between knowing the game and teaching it, Wooden's actual practice methods as documented by Gallimore and Tharp, skill progression through part-whole teaching, the four-to-one positive feedback discipline, and the habits that distinguish effective coaches from merely knowledgeable ones. Use when designing practices, improving instruction, mentoring young coaches, or framing sport leadership as an educational activity.

From the source SKILL.md

John Wooden won ten NCAA basketball championships at UCLA between 1964 and 1975, including seven in a row. When psychologists Ronald Gallimore and Roland Tharp studied what he actually did during practices in 1974--75, they expected to find rousing speeches and memorable motivational techniques. What they found instead was a teacher. Wooden's distinctive contribution was not charisma. It was the discipline of practice design, instructional economy, and feedback quality — the craft of coaching treated as a subset of the craft of teaching. This skill lays out that craft in usable form.
