Evaluation System for Teachers AdvancedProgression 6+ years IntermediateProgression 4-5 years InitialProgression 1-3 years Self Reflection (standards/rubrics) None Required* Observation (2) Observation (4)
Observation • Not the evaluation • Initial Progression-4, Intermediate-2, Advanced-if requested • One class period or minimum of 30 minutes • Supported by evidence and conversation
Evaluation System for Teachers AdvancedProgression 6+ years IntermediateProgression 4-5 years InitialProgression 1-3 years Self Reflection (standards/rubrics) None Required* Observation (2) Observation (4) Evidence
Evidence is provided to support performance level determination • To be distinguished, evidence must be noted in the system • Evaluators record data using the Observation form Evidence
When is Evidence Needed? For Distinguished Evidence must be noted in the system for a distinguished rating on either/both the self-reflection and/or the evaluation. For Discrepancies If an evaluator disagrees with a rating in the self-reflection, the individual being evaluated has the opportunity to provide evidence to support his/her self-reflection rating. However, the evaluator cannot change the self-reflection. The evidence provided will be considered by the evaluator when determining the summative rating. NOTE: The amount of evidence and the necessity of evidence is the same no matter regardless of the teacher’s progression.
Table Tasks • Each table will receive a scenario. • Read the scenario together • Using the rubrics, give the teacher a performance rating for each element of the given standard • Discuss what evidence you used to determine the rating
Rationale • Comprehensive system of support • Culture based on trust, support and professional growth • Active role for educators • Time and resources
Focused Support Plan • Proactive, preventative • Area(s) of concern in one or more performance standards • Support meets individual needs
Focused Support Plan Essential Components: • Identified area of concern with reference to the standard(s) to be addressed • Expectations for change • 9 week timeline for implementation • Resources for support, including referral to other educators
Focused Support Plan Nine Weeks Decision • Standard met-removed from plan • Adequate progress – another Focused Support Plan 3. Inadequate progress – Corrective Action Plan
Corrective Action Plan • 18 weeks • Unsatisfactory performance shown in a completed evaluation • Inadequate progress on focused support plan • Certain instances may require immediate action • Determinative
Corrective Action Plan Essential components: • Identified area of unsatisfactory performance with reference to the standard(s) to be addressed • Expectations for change • Timeline for implementation • Resources for support, including referral to other educators
