  2. Goals • Deepen educator understanding of the Tripod survey purpose and structure. • Facilitate analysis of school and teacher-level Tripod results. • Highlight strategies for continuous improvement.

  3. Tripod Facts • Surveys are observational. • Based on more than a decade of research. • Assesses teacher performance in relation to 7 constructs. • National and local results are reliable measures of effective teaching and predictive of student growth. • Provides a different lens into instructional practices than classroom observations and supports multiple measures.

  6. Items and Favorability Ratings • Favorability Ratings are provided for each item. • Based on percent of students responding favorably to each item. • Neutral responses do not count toward ratings. • Blank responses do not count against the teacher. • Some items are reverse coded. • The negative response is actually the favorable one. • Example: This class does not keep my attention; I get bored. • Although ‘no’ is a negative response typically, it is actually the favorable response here. As a result, the answer ‘no’ is what counts toward the favorability percentage for this item. • The vendor then switches students’ responses to count toward favorability.

  7. Calculation of Tripod Levels using NCEs • The ratings for Tripod are calculated based on the comparison of all teachers in each SCS survey level. • For example: • Ms. Jones is a 2nd grade teacher. • Her students completed the SCS Early Elementary survey. • Ms. Jones scored higher than 68% of her peers. Her overall NCE (Normal Curve Equivalent) is 68. • Ms. Jones’ Tripod level is a 4, based on the Tripod quintile ratings (1-5).
