Teacher Effectiveness: All of Your Questions Answered
Matt Gill , Tammy Meyer, Robin Curtis10/15/2015
Teacher Effectiveness Overview
Background
• Principle 3 of the ESEA Waiver to No Child Left Behind (NCLB)
• Commission on Teaching and Learning (CTL) created to design the Teacher and Principal Educator effectiveness models–Includes teachers, principals, higher
ed, SD DOE, SDEA, EDEC
TIMELINE REVIEW
• SY 2014-15 : Teacher Effectiveness Learning Year
• SY: 2015-16: Teacher Effectiveness Full Implementation
– Includes SLO and Danielson-aligned Professional Practice Rating
• Fall 2016: Submission of district-level aggregate Teacher
Effectiveness data from SY 2015-16 via PRF
– Data will NOT be reported individually
The Parts
• Professional Practice Rating– South Dakota Framework for Teaching
• Student Growth Rating– Student Learning Objectives (SLOs)
• Summative Teacher Effectiveness Rating–Combination of the Professional Practice and
Student Growth Ratings
Summative Rating MatrixProfessional Oversight: Is the rating fair and accurate based on the evidence
and data shared by the teacher

Misconceptions
• Use of the state assessment– The state assessment IS NOT the measure of the SLO in tested
grades and subjects– Used to prioritize the learning content and develop SLO baseline
• Used as a “gotcha” – FALSE– This model is all about growth for all and focused conversations
• Use of Teacher Effectiveness Ratings– The SD DOE only reports state-level aggregate data
• Length of SLO– SLO should last the duration of the class (semester, year) and
cover the most important learning
The Aspiration: Improve Instruction and Student Learning
1. Encourage meaningful, in-depth dialogue focused on improving instruction
2. Provide regular, timely, useful feedback that guides professional growth
3. Support a culture in which data drives instructional decisions
4. Establish clear expectations for teacher performance5. Use multiple measures to meaningfully determine
and differentiate teacher performance6. Provide a fair, flexible, research-based model that
informs personnel decisions.
Lesson’s Learned
Differentiated Goal
**Recommended, not Required**• 1. Disaggregate your pre-assessment
data and develop differentiated individual or group goals.
• 2. Write you SLO so that it includes 100% of your students.
• 100% of my students will reach their individual teacher-created growth goal.
Why Differentiated SLOs?
– All students CAN show growth.– All students CAN and SHOULD be included in
instruction.– Differentiated SLOs become a true GROWTH goal, set
by the teacher who best understands what is realistic and rigorous for the children in his/her classroom.
– Doesn’t an SLO like “90% of students will score an 85% or higher on the math assessment” sound a lot like AMOs? NCLB?
