What is the goal setting measurement?

Are the SLO’s (Student Learning Objectives) an aspect of the SEI materials?

How is the PUSD MTE different than other districts in the state? Other CCSS states?

The goal setting comprises 17% of a teacher’s overall appraisal. Teachers are asked to write two goals: one based on the Tripod Survey results and the second on Domain 3. Goal setting is worth 12 points.

Teacher Effectiveness (Evaluation)

Teachers face tougher evaluations than ever, according to the National Council on Teacher Quality report. "The number of states that have moved so far forward on teacher evaluation is just striking -- more than 40 states now require student achievement to be a factor in teacher evaluations is very different from where we were before," Sandi Jacobs, the group's vice president, said in an interview. "There's been a real transformation."

Yes, No, Maybe
