Goals Streamlined - The process should be easily understandable

for all, not so burdensome that it isn’t used effectively

Linked –Observations, walkthroughs, lenses, etc. should be focused on indicators that link directly to our framework for usable data.

Supportive – All aspects should lead to supportive discussions and next steps that improve practice.

Useful for professional development – by school, district, or individual. Data should help us make informed decisions about what type of PD support is needed.

The Concept

4 Performance Standards 1. Learning Environment

2. Planning

3. Instructional Delivery

4. Professionalism

These align as required by the State with the Alaska

Professional Teaching Standards. They also align with State

#3 Instructional Delivery

Promotes critical thinking, collaboration, and self-

directed learning

Assessments guide instruction

#4 Professionalism

Professionalism toward students, school, community,

and the profession

Professionalism in learning communities and networks

Professional Development

Professional attitudes regarding State, district and

school policies, procedures, and regulations

Streamlining Our Work We will share the Google Folder “AGSD Teacher

Evaluation Model”.

Send me an email with or from your email account you use for your Google account (the one you use to share Google Docs) - tracie.weisz@gmail.com

I’ll share the folder with you (be patient! This may take a few minutes).

The folder contains 9 items. You will be using the first 8 in your work this morning. The last one is for the afternoon workshop.

Our Work Today GOAL: We need to determine what our proficiency

indicators will be within our 4 Performance Standards

OUTCOME: In your Performance Standard Worksheet

in your Google Doc, enter in the indicators your group

has chosen that fit within the Supporting Categories.

Our Work Today GOAL: We need to determine what our indicators will be

within our 4 Performance Areas

TASK: Your group will focus on one of the Performance Standards. You will be provided with a list of related indicators taken from EED-approved sources including; the Alaska Professional Teacher Standards, the Charlotte Danielson model, the Marzano model, and the CEL 5D+ (Washington State). Included are also the California Professional Teacher Standards, as these are utilized by the Alaska Mentor Project and are familiar to many new teachers. Your group will discuss the Performance Standard and its Supporting Categories, review the provided indicators, and begin to choose (adapt and re-word as necessary) indicators that clearly establish proficient-level teaching behaviors that align with the Supporting Categories given for that Performance Standard.

Specifics:Each group has been provided with the following:

A Performance Standard and its 4 Supporting Categories

A list of aligned indicators and sources

Copies of Charlotte Danielson and Marzano models to look at as examples for how proficiency indicators are written

Access to Google Docs folder for your group in which you can enter your group’s work
