Harvard MQI Coaching

MQI Coaching provides content-specific professional development to teachers and instructional leaders to help them improve math instruction in their classrooms and schools. The MQI Coaching model uses an evidence-based observational instrument, the Mathematical Quality of Instruction (MQI) rubric, as a lens through which teachers and coaches reflect on and analyze math instruction. Using classroom video and the MQI rubric in regular coaching cycles, coaches help teachers self-identify areas for instructional growth and commit to realistic and actionable next steps to improve their math instruction. MQI Coaching is an initiative of the Center for Education Policy Research at Harvard University.
