Page 4: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

WHERE HAVE WE BEEN?

After meeting this summer, Administrators….

3 COMPONENTS OF EFFECTIVE TEACHER EVALUATION

teaching

Trained evaluators who can make consistent judgments

based on evidence

used and monitored to see if it has desired effect

2• Strategy is

used but in a mechanistic way

used but pieces are missing

EVALUATIVE

Involves making judgments about the quality

of teaching for the following purposes:

• Certifying candidates to enter the profession• Deciding whether to offer tenure or a continuing

contract to teachers• Affirming the continuing skill of experienced

teachers• Determining whether an experienced teacher is

performing below standards (assistance plan)

Page 27: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

REQUIRED EVIDENCE OF TEACHING

Must be specific about performance AND evidence provides such specificity.

What is that evidence and what does it look like?

Page 28: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

VALID EVIDENCE MUST BE GROUNDED IN A CLEAR DEFINITION OF PRACTICE …..

DEVELOP A MODEL

Performance Framework that supports ongoing growth and professional learning of teachers

Overview of teaching & learning aligned to NDE’s 7 Teacher Effective Practices

Guides ongoing teacher learning - for each component and element of the framework, specific levels of performance describe a continuum of teaching, from unsatisfactory to distinguished.

Our work ahead of us …..

Page 31: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

LET’S BEGIN ….

Determine Levels of Performance – Levels of Good or Evidence of Teaching

I. Number of columnsa. Middle or no-middle?b. Where does “good”

or “basic” fall?c. Think about the degrees of

“good”.

Page 32: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

NEXT….

2. Adjectives to describe

those performance levels• -start with the middle

3. Finally, describe each level • –what does it look like?

OUR FRAMEWORK……CONSENSUS ON MODEL

1 I’ll fight it

2 I can’t live with it

3 It’s ok, I can live with it

4 Agree

5 Absolutely

UNWRAPPING THE EFFECTIVE PRACTICES

1. Underline only those nouns or noun phrases that represent teachable concepts.

2. Circle only those verbs that represent what teachers are to do.

Page 37: Teacher  EvaluatioN  Support

EFFECTIVE PRACTICE 1

The teacher demonstrates a

comprehensive knowledge of content,

pedagogy, students and standards

needed to provide each student with

effective opportunities for learning,

development and  achievement.
