Leadership and Coaching and Feedback
One of the primary roles any leader/manager must excel at is the ability to provide helpful coaching and timely feedback to their employees and/or team members. Coaching is a conversation that helps people develop their skills, achieve success, and reach their goals. Coaching is a way of expressing truth, and confronting tough issues, and is centered around language that inspires. It is usually done in a one-on-one setting on a regular or as-needed basis. One of the coach’s main tasks is to help employees link their motivation to corporate goals.
Feedback is commentary a leader/manager provides on how someone is doing in their job duties or as a member of a team. Feedback can include positive or negative observations or both. Feedback that is heard and acted upon is considered effective feedback. Feedback should be provided in a constructive manner. Providing constructive feedback means that you are focused on giving feedback in a helpful manner, to help the other individual to learn and grow, not to insult, belittle, or punish.
What is OneNote?
Microsoft OneNote is a digital version of a physical notebook. This means you can capture digital notes and keep them organized. It also means you can add images, diagrams, audio, video, links, and more. Use OneNote with other programs in the Office 365 suite such as Teams and on your desktop, online, or mobile devices. OneNote notebooks can also be shared with multiple other users simultaneously.

Teachers could create, manage, and distribute instructional content to entire classes or individual students.
