Inspiring Excellence IN INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICE THRU ACTIONABLE FEEDBACK & SUPPORT • At The Session Participants Will…. • Gain insight and a shared understanding of the common language needed to describe elements of teacher effectiveness, based on evidence of student learning (just the facts!) • Through a series of interactive tasks, learn to differentiate when a task or event is descriptive or evaluative and use that increased ability as a tool for providing non-judgemental, ongoing, actionable feedback aimed at improving student learning • Develop strategies and tools for creating authentic conversation and professional communication based on goals set through mutual understanding; focused on actionable feedback and ongoing support before and after classroom visits and observations • Practice and deepen understanding of descriptive note-taking as a tool for analyzing the task, the teacher’s questions/actions and the students’ responses as evidenced in an observed video-recorded lesson to provide evidence for their decisions and feedback • Use these descriptive notes, reflect on and align a domain-specific rubric with student learning evidence. This activity will guide participants to better understand how to objectively rate teacher proficiency and guide instructional best practices, regardless of the framework used • Gain understanding of the process for ensuring inter-ratability among building administrators and supervisors, creating a shared vision of what and how best to analyze teacher effectiveness • The session will conclude with discussion of next steps leading to on-going professional development, building professional learning communities and a whole-school-shared vision of quality teaching and learning.
