Edthena Professional Development
Presented by Edthena
Edthena is a pioneering professional development platform that leverages video coaching and artificial intelligence to transform how teachers grow and improve their practice. The platform offers two flagship tools: VC3, the next evolution of its award-winning video coaching platform, and AI Coach, recognised as a TIME Best Invention. With VC3, teachers upload classroom video and receive AI-generated lesson summaries, student-to-teacher talk time analysis, and word frequency visualisations that provide deep insights into instructional practice. Instructional coaches can then use these insights to facilitate more focused, meaningful coaching conversations. AI Coach pairs teachers with a virtual coaching assistant that provides instant, lesson-level feedback and supports personalised, self-paced action planning—effectively doubling coaching capacity for districts with limited coaching staff. Independent research confirms that organisations using Edthena tools improve teacher retention and increase teacher competence. The platform is designed for schools and districts seeking to scale high-quality instructional coaching without proportionally increasing coaching staff, making expert-level professional development accessible to every teacher.
