Evaluation to “weed out” ineffective teachers and “reward” effective teachers has simply not worked because the
movement was solely focused on measuring teachers as opposed to helping them grow. Frontier and Mielke have
provided a template for the new era of teacher evaluation. It is based on sound research and theory, sound
insights, and, most importantly, the right vision for the future. Robert Marzano
An exciting proposal for how the new science of expertise can inform the design of learning systems supporting the
improvement of performance of professionals, especially teachers. Frontier and Mielke show how the status quo…
can be transformed into designed learning environments, where teachers receive actionable specific objective feed
back and guidance for developing themselves into their own coaches to continue their life‐long professional
development. K. Anders Ericsson Tony Frontier tonyfrontier@gmail.com

• Moving to an expert level of performance
requires deliberate practice; repeated
practice focused on specific aspects of
performance, feedback on that
performance and modification.
