Summary: Keep a living record of your coaching interactions and observations on each teacher's Growth Record.
📋 What lands on a Growth Record
Everything on a teacher's Growth Record is a touchpoint. They arrive three ways:
- Updates you write — a 1:1, a classroom visit, a debrief, a planning session. You choose one or more update types when you log it.
- Supports — a Coaching Pod, Lesson Unpacker or Lesson Rehearsal. Logged for you when the teacher receives one.
- Observations Nisa builds — from a classroom recording, or from a photo of your notes. Nisa reads them in and files them on the record.
🪄 How to log an update
- Open a teacher's profile and go to the Growth Record section.
- Click Add update.
- Write your note. Pick one or more update types — 1:1 Coaching, Observation, Debrief, Planning, Resource Sharing, Leader Meeting, Other. Your organization may have its own set. Adjust the date and duration if you need to.
- Click Continue. On the second step, connect the update to any active goals it advanced, and review Nisa's take — a short synthesis you can edit or clear.
- Save. It appears on the teacher's Growth Record.

⚠️
Some organizations use the older logger, where this button says Log Interaction and opens a simpler form with three types: 1:1 meeting, classroom visit, or general interaction. Either way, the update lands on the Growth Record.

Where your organization has it enabled, each attachment can be marked private to you or shared with anyone who can already see the update. Two things worth knowing:
