When Teachers Believe—in Themselves and Each Other—Students Thrive
This week on the podcast, we sit down with Jenni Donohoo and Glenn Forbes to discuss their new book, Collective Impact: Overcoming the Twelve Enemies of Teacher Efficacy.
We explore how collective efficacy—educators’ shared belief in their power to impact student learning—creates school cultures where both teachers and students flourish.
Just as we encourage students to see challenges as opportunities, teachers must shift from fixed, demoralized mindsets to one where a small win is celebrated and setbacks fuel growth.
Together, educators can—and do—make the difference.
- In this episode we highlight John Hattie’s research on collective efficacy as the #1 influence on student achievement.
- Explore the authors’ framework of the “12 enemies of efficacy” (from isolation to negativity).
- Share practical “micro moves” rooted in Bandura’s four sources of efficacy—mastery, modeling, emotions, and persuasion.
