A Flawed System
• Outdated, limited, evaluative criteria
• Few shared assumptions about teaching
• Lack of precision in evaluation• Hierarchical, one-way
communication• Same procedures for novices and
experienced professionals• Limited evaluator expertise• Limited data

What Does the current Research
Share?Activity - • Working in Groups of 4 –
– The graphic organizers• The Venn Diagram (Side 1)• The Notetaking Columns (Side 2)• The “My Conclusions” Box (Side 2)
![Page 6: Teacher Evaluation Conversations (#14) Principal Cluster Nov. 30, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042703/56649ede5503460f94beed0b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• 8 Passages using Teacher Evaluation as their theme• Each are printed to a different
color of cardstock• Each has current
research/information concerning Teacher Evaluation
![Page 7: Teacher Evaluation Conversations (#14) Principal Cluster Nov. 30, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042703/56649ede5503460f94beed0b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
– Your Task – • Select any 2 of the colored
cardstock• Read the 2 articles• Using the Venn Diagram
– Compare, Contrast, Find the Similarities of the two passages you have chosen
– Share your findings with your tablemates
![Page 8: Teacher Evaluation Conversations (#14) Principal Cluster Nov. 30, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042703/56649ede5503460f94beed0b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• As your Tablemates share their learnings and insights– Use the Column side (Side 2) of
your Organizer Sheet to capture - • Essence of the Passage• Interesting Findings• Possible “Take Homes”

• My Conclusions Box– Capture, based upon
what you read, heard and/or learned - 1. Something that
interested you2. something you will do
or implement when you return to school

The Complexity of Teaching
• Physically demanding• Emotionally demanding• Cognitively demanding
It is useful to think of teaching as similar to not one but several other professions, combining the skills of business management, human relations, and theater arts.
Charlotte Danielson, 1996, 2007

A Blueprint for Teacher Evaluation
![Page 12: Teacher Evaluation Conversations (#14) Principal Cluster Nov. 30, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042703/56649ede5503460f94beed0b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Does the Teacher Evaluation Instrument your district currently use assess the - – “What” of teaching?– The “How” of teaching?– The process for determining
the “What” and “How”?– Were you trained to evaluate
and make consistent judgments based on evidence?

“The Framework for Teaching” Charlotte Danielson
• Wide Range of Purposes– From meeting novices’
needs to enhancing veteran’s skills
– Serves as a road map of the complexities of teaching
– Identifies a shared understanding of teaching

The Domains
• Planning and Preparation
• The Classroom Environment
• Instruction
• Professional Responsibilities
![Page 15: Teacher Evaluation Conversations (#14) Principal Cluster Nov. 30, 2010](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042703/56649ede5503460f94beed0b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Where is the State of Nebraska headed?
• Rule 10 – requires the district’s evaluation
system/form be on file at NDE– requires the form on file BE the
current district evaluation system – NDE allows districts to
• Review, revise, implement new systems as long as it is filed with NDE
• Will NOT dictate, nor endorse an evaluation system to be used by a NE district
– It may suggest a model or two
