Questions everyone should be able to answer…. What is evidence based observation? How do we know we have quality evidence? What should evidence be free of? Why do evidence based observation? What are the attributes of checking for
understanding? What do we look for if we are looking for
evidence of checking for understanding? What is checking for understanding?
![Page 3: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
More breaks You need to take time to reflect This is hard. How do we manage the time?
Feedback… and questions

“Homeplay” Identify the presence or absence of “check
for understanding” in your present evaluation tool
Practice collecting evidence of “check for understanding” as you watch instruction
Check yourself – did your evidence contain bias or opinion? Did you quantify where you could?
![Page 5: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
How did you do?
What were you able to find out?
What did you notice as you were observing instruction?
Let’s debrief…
![Page 6: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Explain the difference between current practice and evidence based observation
Identify and define criteria for one area of effective instruction around which evidence collection will be focused
Define the differences between the definitions of “student engagement” in the rubrics approved by SED.
Today’s Outcomes:

Explain the impact of confusing and/or ambiguous language on the process of teacher evaluation.
Describe strategies that a district could employ to

Rewind…
![Page 9: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is Evidence Based Observation?
Collection of factual information
Free of bias or opinion
Based on specific criteria
Used to provide feedback for reflection and improvement of teacher practice
![Page 10: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Read the evidence collected at the left. Use the definition of quality evidence based observation to “check” each example of evidence. So:
1. Is there opinion?2. Could it be more specific?3. Is it quantified?
Let’s take a look at some evidence collected at Network Team Training in Albany..….
![Page 11: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Review of Evidence
Respectfully is an opinion. Id specific responses to students – this will make it specific and not vague
Your turn…
![Page 12: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
“difficult to focus” is a judgement…name the postings…quantify number of postings to be able to give feedback/answer questions
Vague, not quantified number, give specific examples of rules
Summary of what is being seen, have quotes from teacher and students and specifc materials students used
Judgement - disengaged
![Page 13: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Smoothly – judgement, use specific teacher and student quotes, quantify time students used to transition from one activity to another
More quantified than previous example – specific teacher and student language will strengthen this
Time – what is first half of class? Provide exact example of time…
![Page 14: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Paraphrase – quote teacher
Vague,judgemental, quantify where you can/work to be more specific
What were the goals and objectives? Be specific.
It takes a lot of practice! Don’t get discouraged.

What does it mean when we say “student engagement”?
All students are visibly participating in activities/learning that is relevant
to the objective.

What would “student engagement” look like/sound like?
T - “How many sides does a square have?”All students used the response clickers to answer the question.
T, “Using the index cards on your desk, write three pieces of information you must include in your resume.” All of the students wrote their answers on the index cards.
![Page 21: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What would “student engagement” look like/sound like?Envelopes (with “cut up” sentences enclosed) were placed on the table. All students took an envelope from the table, returned to their desks, and put the cut up sentences in order.
T- “Write 6X4= on your white board and then solve.” All students wrote the equation on their boards and solved. T - “Show!” All the students held up their boards for the teacher to see.

Video –Student Engagement
Kristin Dewit – Grade 9 Mathematics
Objective: Identify the four types of slopes of lines: negative, positive, no slope and undefined
![Page 23: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What did you collect? Collection of Evidence
All students mirrored the teacher’s physical actions when she stated, “Mirror me please.”
The teacher clapped and said, “Teach.” Students clapped and said, “Ok.” Then, all students faced one another (in pairs) to mirror their partner’s physical actions. The 4 types of slopes of lines were stated by the student labeled “North” in each pairing.
![Page 24: Evidence Based Observation Lead Evaluator Training Part 1 – Welcome Back! June 18, 2012](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/56816267550346895dd2d266/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What did you collect? Collection of EvidenceDuring the “quiz,” the teacher pointed to lines posted on the board in the front of the room. All students faced Ms. Dewit and used hand gestures to represent negative, positive, undefined or no slope.

What did you collect? Collection of Evidence Seven students were given envelopes with pen parts inside.
T – “Your job is going to be to construct a pen.”
T-“Look around the room for things with interchangeable parts.”
T-“What kind of revolution is this?”
S1-”A good revolution to a better future.”
S2- “Industrial revolution”

What did you collect? Collection of Evidence
T-“The person sitting in the 4 position-at every table except for this one where it is the 3 person-I need you to come to the front and stand in a line.” 7 students came to the front of the room.T- “Raise your hands if you can answer yes to the following questions.” 3 questions were posed about having expertise with pens to the seven students in the front of the room. No students responded yes.

On the blank side of your feedback sheet:
1. Write one question that you
think everyone should be able to answer about “engaged learners.”
2. Write a personal goal that you have around “engaged learners.”

“Homeplay” Practice collecting evidence of “engaged
learners.” while watching instruction
Examine an observation that you have completed, looking for evidence and bias/opinion
Identify the presence or absence of “engaged learners” in your current observation tool.
