Our collaboration with Mielke Way Consulting has developed our capacity as a system to create and sustain a culture of continual learning and improvement. From customized support options to engaging seminars and workshops, we have found Mielke Way Consulting to be an important partner in the development and implementation of our System of Professional Growth.

“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 feedback and guidance for developing themselves into their own coaches to continue their life long professional development.” 

“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 CEO of Marzano Research 

“Too often it is assumed that observation leads to improvements in student learning.  Valid and   reliable evaluation can  ‘measure’ what teachers do, but the emphasis too often is on accountability not improvement.  Building on trust, Frontier  and Mielke address this imbalance.  By providing the processes and protocols that empower educators to effectively reflect on their  professional practice, teachers can actually improve their teaching. Here’s how to optimize the impact on  student learning.”
