TPEP Core Principles • The critical importance of teacher and leadership quality • The professional nature of teaching and leading a school • The complex relationship between the system for teacher and principal evaluation and district systems and negotiations • The belief in professional learning as an underpinning of the new evaluation system • The understanding that the career continuum must be addressed in the new evaluation system • The system must determine the balance of “inputs or acts” and “outputs or results”
Hopes Group 1 • That our system will be meaningful. • That our system will be positive and support growth. • That our system leads to student growth. Group 2 • Growth is positive • Professional learning • Student-focused Group 3 • Positive collaboration • Quality • Professional growth
Concerns Group 1 • That our system cannot become bureaucratic. • Short timelines, sufficient training. • Growth component is dependent on the makeup of students. Group 2 • Narrow focus missed opportunities Group 3 • Student growth • Time/training • Overwhelmed by unknown and detail
Sufficient consensus means that: • All participants contribute. • Differences viewed as helpful rather than as a hindrance. • Anyone can paraphrase an issue. • Everyone has an opportunity to describe his/her feelings about an interest/issue. • Those who continue to disagree may indicate publicly that they are willing to go along for an experimental try for a prescribed period of time. • All share in the final decision.
Consensus does not mean: • A unanimous vote. • Everyone’s first choice. • That everyone agrees, rather that enough are in favor to get the decision carried out. • Avoiding conflict or overcoming resistance in the short run. 3.1.6
Proposed Consensus Definition We have arrived at consensus when all points of view have been heard, and the will of the group is evident—even to those who oppose it.
Important: Silence is not agreement! 3.1.6
Ways to Indicate Sufficient Consensus • Thumb System - Up is yes, down is no and sideways is either an undecided or a sign that it meets the minimum requirement; however the team should continue the discussion and/or proceed with extreme caution in the event more than one person has voted sideways. • Fist to Five System - This is a system to indicate degrees of agreement or disagreement. A hand raised with all five fingers up indicates full agreement. A fist with no fingers raises indicates complete disagreement. Less than five fingers raised indicates various degrees of agreement. If the indication is mixed, continue the discussion. 3.1.6
Proposed Consensus Definition We have arrived at consensus when all points of view have been heard, and the will of the group is evident—even to those who oppose it.
