Introduction to the Marzano Teacher Evaluation Model for USD 259
The Big Picture • The evaluation process was jointly developed by USD 259 Administration and UTW. • The Marzano Model was chosen by committee that had Administrators, Teachers, and UTW representation to replace the Danielson Model. • We will be using an electronic tool called iObservation to conduct observations, provide feedback and to finalize evaluations. • Administrators are going through training and certification now. Teachers will be trained next fall.
Teacher Categories • Currently Five Categories of Teachers • Category A: Probationary Teachers in 1st or 2nd year of teaching. • Category A with Peer Consultant: Same as Category A, but one evaluation done by Peer Consultant. • Category B: Probationary Teachers in final year of probation. • Category B-Plan of Assistance: Non-probationary teachers on a Plan of Assistance (POA). • Category C: Non-Probationary teachers in years 4+.
Future Option • Category D Teachers: Undefined at this point, but held in reserve for future use with exemplary or “All Star” experienced teachers.
Evaluation Critical definitions
Types of Observations • Formal Observation • An announced observation that is at least 30 minutes in length. • The teacher will be required to submit his or her lesson plan in a district approved format (see negotiated agreement) at least 24 hours in advance of the observation. • A post observation conference would be held within five school days of the observation.
Types of Observations • Informal Observation: • An observation that can be announced or unannounced, but is at least 15 minutes in length. • The teacher is not required to submit a lesson plan ahead of time. • A post observation conference would be held within five school days of the observation.
Types of Observations • Walkthrough Observations • An unannounced quick observation of at least three minutes in length. • No lesson plan is required ahead of time. • No post observation conference is required.
Types of Observations • Targeted Observations • Announced observations at least ten minutes in length that focus on a specific Lesson Segment, Design Question, and/or Element. • A pre-conference would be held at least 24 hours in advance and a post conference would be held within five school days of the observation.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category A Teachers • Formal Observations: two required by the 60th day of each semester. • Informal Observations: none. • Walkthroughs: ten required prior to evaluation. • Targeted Observations: only at administrator’s recommendation.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category A (with Peer Consultant) Teachers • Formal Observations: 1 by administrator by the 60th day of 1st Semester; 1 by peer consultant by the 60th day of 2nd Semester. • Informal Observations: none. • Walkthroughs: ten required prior to evaluation. • Targeted Observation: only at administrator’s recommendation.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category B Teachers • Formal Observations: one during first semester. • Informal Observations: one by February 15th. • Walkthroughs: ten required prior to evaluation. • Targeted Observations: only at administrator’s recommendation.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category B-POA Teachers • Formal Observations: one during 1st semester. • Informal Observations: one by February 15th. • Walkthroughs: ten required prior to evaluation. • Targeted Observations: required as defined by POA or Assistive Process.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category C Teachers • Formal Observations: none. • Informal Observations: two required (one prior to the 60th day of each semester). • Walkthroughs: ten required prior to evaluation. • Targeted Observations: only at administrator’s recommendation.
Minimum Frequency of ObservationsDuring Your Evaluation Year • Category D Teachers • Formal Observations: undefined. • Informal Observations: undefined. • Walkthroughs: undefined. • Targeted Observations: undefined.
Evaluation The Roll Out Cycles
Four Domains & Weighting • Domain 1: Classroom Strategies & Behaviors • Year 1, 100%; Year 2, 78%; Year 3, 68%. • Domain 2: Planning & Preparing • Year 1, 0%; Year 2, 14%; Year 3, 14%. • Domain 3: Reflecting on Teaching • Year 1, 0%; Year 2, 8%; Year 3, 8%. • Domain 4: Collegiality & Professionalism • Year 1, 0%; Year 2, 0%; Year 3,10%.
What to Focus on When • Domain 1: begins during the 2015-2016 school year. • Domains 2 & 3: begin during the 2016-2017 school year. • Growth Plan added as part of the final evaluation. • Start tracking Domain 4 during 2016-17 school year, but do not include in evaluation. • Domain 4: begins during the 2017 – 2018 school year.
Evaluation - Roll Out Cycle • 2014-15: Selected teachers in a hold harmless capacity. Teachers who must be evaluated by state law will be evaluated under the Danielson model. • 2015 – 2016: All Category A & Category B Teachers, along with Teachers in their 1st year of Category C. • 2016 – 2017: All of the above plus 1/3 of teachers at each site with five or more years of experience.
Evaluation - Roll Out Cycle (cont.) • 2017 – 2018: All Category A & B teachers, all teachers in first year of Category C, plus the second group of 1/3 of teachers with five plus years of experience. • 2018 -2019: All Category A & B teachers, all teachers in first year of Category C, plus the third group of 1/3 of teachers with five plus years of experience. • 2019 -2020+: All Category A & B teachers, all teachers in first year of Category C, plus the rotating 1/3 of teachers with five plus years of experience so that each experience teacher is evaluated every three years as per state statute.
Evaluation What is the difference between an observation and an evaluation?
Evaluation Score vs Observation Rating • Observation is a Rating Scale which includes • Not using (0) • Beginning (1) • Developing (2) • Applying (3) • Innovating (4) • Evaluation Scoring is a 4 point scale that includes • Highly Effective • Effective • Developing • Unsatisfactory
What the Four Levels of Performance Mean • Highly Effective • Distinguished • Consistently Exceeds Expectations • Strategies called for are used correctly in all students • All students are monitored for the desired effect and strategy differentiated based on student need • Use of strategies creates the desired effect in all students
What the Four Levels of Performance Mean • Effective: • Proficient /Accomplished • Consistently Meets Expectations • Strategies called for are used correctly • The majority of students are monitored for the desired effect and strategy differentiated based on some students need • Use of strategies creates the desired effect in the majority of students
What the Four Levels of Performance Mean • Developing: • Improving Skills / Novice / Learning / Basic • Inconsistently Meets Expectations • The strategies used were not consistently appropriate for the lesson, students, and/or curriculum • The majority of students are not monitored for the desired effect • Strategies were not differentiated based on student needs • The use of strategies does not create the desired effect in the majority of students
What the Four Levels of Performance Mean • Unsatisfactory: • Unacceptable / Inadequate Performance • Consistently Fails to Meet Expectations • The strategies were either not used when called for or used incorrectly • There was little or no monitoring of students for the desired effect • The vast majority of students do not demonstrate the desired effect from the use of strategies • It is unclear what the desired effect on students is or if clear it was not achieve with the majority of students
