What behaviors matter when we are training our teachers? How can innovative approaches to teacher preparation have a more powerful impact on teachers' effectiveness? In this keynote address at InterAct: A CLASS Summit, Dr. Bob Pianta offers a glimpse into some of the questions he's set out to answer through research, and will engage in conversation with Teachstone's Mike Benzian about how the findings from these investigations might be turned into future classroom and coaching opportunities.  *Recorded April 12, 2016 at InterAct: A CLASS Summit* [![Webinar: Best in CLASS: Coaching Teachers on the CLASS](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/336169/c098c451-3083-4534-bdde-5e1cc6a69976.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/336169/c098c451-3083-4534-bdde-5e1cc6a69976) ## Subscribe to our Blog Receive timely updates delivered straight to your inbox. - [About Teachstone](http://teachstone.com/about-teachstone/) - [Our Partners](http://teachstone.com/our-partners/) - [Careers](http://teachstone.com/careers/) - [Support](https://teachstone.com/support/) - [Contact Sales](https://info.teachstone.com/contact-a-teachstone-representative) - [Interact Class Summit 2023](https://teachstone.com/interact-class-summit/) Everyday we work to improve teacher-child interactions and we are proud to do so in a business community committed to the highest standards of social and environmental impact.
