Evaluation formalizes the shared responsibility of state and LEAs to improve student achievement and close the achievement gap in order to have all students reach proficiency.
Why??
• Evaluation helps principals be better partners with teachers to deliver high-quality instructional programs.
• Evaluation focuses on performance and outlines specific objectives, performance measures, and targets in a coordinated effort to achieve measurable results for students
Why??
Evaluation ensures that all children
have a fair, equal, and significant
opportunity to obtain a high-quality
education.
Last but certainly not least…
What is accountability?
• When schools and districts are held to high standards for educating children.
• Accountability is the way we measure their effectiveness --how well they are doing.
• It also serves as the basis for identifying those schools or districts that may need differentiated support to reach their goals.
Effective teacher: a teacher whose students achieve acceptable rates (e.g., at least one grade level in an academic year) of student growth.
Race to the Top Definition
Effective teacher: statewide definitions based in large part on student growth and also include other measures, such as classroom observations of practice.
ESEA Reauthorization Definition
What is an effective teacher?
• Effective teachers have high expectations for all students and help student learn, as measured by value-added or other test-based growth measures, or by alternative measures.
• Effective teachers use diverse resources to plan a structure engaging learning opportunities; monitor student progress formatively, adapt instruction as needed; and evaluate learning using multiple sources of evidence.
