A teacher can model a process or demonstrate how something works.
Students learn through observation.
Coaching is more directed than modeling and may involve asking questions to focus students' thinking, supplying hints, or providing information to help students move to the next step. Teachers can also provide physical supports such as diagrams or cue cards. Teachers practiced these techniques when they taught their curriculum units. They then viewed videotapes of their teaching and received feedback from mini-sabbatical staff and peers.
