Danielson Framework
Workshop Goals• Understand why Danielson Framework
was selected as one of 5 state-approved teacher evaluation models
• Gain an understanding of the research-base of the Danielson Framework
• Develop an understanding of the four core domains of the Danielson that embody the art of teaching
![Page 3: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Why have teacher evaluation?We’ve been evaluating teachers as part of our duties
for a long time. Beyond the fact that it is mandated by the state why do it? As an administrator, why is evaluating teachers important to your school?
Take a moment to write reasons that
come to mind.

Ensure Quality Teaching
Danielson’s “Framework for Teachers”:• Defines what good teaching looks like and consists
of • Provides a common language among professionals • Structure that recognizes and respects the
complexities of teaching but provides a simple layout for conversations about teaching
• Versatility for all levels of expertise and experience
![Page 6: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Promotes Professional Development
Danielson’s “Framework for Teachers”:• Provides a forum for discussion about teaching• Focuses on collaboration between evaluator and
teacher• Encourages the teacher to self-reflect and
evaluate“No matter how good a lesson is, we can always
make it better.” (Danielson)
![Page 7: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Correlation to National Frameworks
• Interstate New Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (INTASC)
• National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Evaluation (NCATE)
• National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBTS)
• New Jersey Professional Standards for Teachers (NJPST)
![Page 8: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Danielson and the Praxis III• Praxis III is used by 6 states to assess actual teaching skills
and classroom performance as part of the initial teacher licensure process
• Danielson worked with ETS to help prepare and validate the Praxis III
• Research to create the Praxis III took seven years, multiple pilot studies, and involved thousands of educators
• Danielson designed the training program used by assessors• By nature, this system must fair, highly accurate, and
reliable
![Page 9: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Danielson & the MET Project• Large scale research study, called Measures
of Effective Teaching Project, launched in 2009 by the Bill & Melissa Gates Foundation
• Tests the reliability and validity of ways of using a combination of different instruments to measure teacher effectiveness
• Evaluated over 13,000 classroom lessons using multiple teacher evaluation methods including the Danielson Framework
![Page 10: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Other facts worth knowing…• The Framework has been shown to be a
predictor of student learning according to research from the University of Chicago Consortium on School Research
• Implemented in over 16 states• Approved teacher evaluation tool in many
states including New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, & Washington
![Page 11: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• It is important for students to develop “deep, conceptual understanding”
• Developing high levels of understanding requires effective models of instruction
• Decisions made in the classroom are “purposeful”.
• Teaching is a profession.
Underlying Assumptions of the Framework
![Page 12: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Features of the Framework• Comprehensive- The Framework describes “all
teaching”• Based on large body of sound educational
research• There’s no “gotcha” factor. Teachers know what
and how they are evaluated.• The framework allows for all types of teaching
situations.• The complexity of teaching is captured within a
clear set of themes• No one approach to teaching is focused upon.
![Page 13: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The “Wow” Factor
Think of when you observed an excellent teacher in the classroom or a professional context.
What would you see or hear that made you think this teacher was excellent at their profession?
What would make you think I want my child in this teacher’s class or this is what I like to see in my school?
Write one trait on each post-it note. Can you come up with 5-7 major traits?
![Page 14: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

2011 Revised Edition of Danielson
• Revised language within components to be more precise
• Critical attributes or observable teacher/student behaviors or actions added within each component and level of performance
• Possible teaching examples listed within each component and level of performance
NEW
![Page 24: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Evidence of Teaching
• Evidence refers to artifacts, actions or statements, and decisions made by the teacher
• Evidence is used as the foundation of the judgment of teaching
• Evidence comes in many forms and is determined by your school district
![Page 25: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Sources of Evidence• Formal observation– 3 stages- pre, observation, and post-conference
• Informal observation– Abbreviated visit– Unannounced w/informal conversation
– Teaching artifacts– Planning documentation– Forms of communication, etc
Direct Observation
Artifacts
![Page 26: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Evidence of Student Learning
• Framework explains what teachers can do- input
• Indirect evidence is also considered important to judge student learning- output– Results of state-mandated tests– Student and parent surveys– Teaching artifacts- units, lessons, assessments,
communications to parents, etc.
![Page 27: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Formal Observation
• Pre-conference or “planning conference”– Teacher interview– Review of documents– Discussion of procedure/process
• Observation – Gathering of evidence
• Post-conference or “reflection conference”– Teacher lesson reflection– Discussion w/teacher
![Page 28: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Preconference• Purpose- chance for the teacher to discuss
their planning process/skills• Things to consider– Give teachers questions in advance to review– Have teachers bring copies of written materials for
lesson– Review the teacher’s lesson prior to the
conference• Seen as core part of evaluating Domain 1
![Page 29: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Documenting Evidence
• Evidence is statements, actions, or behaviors• Evidence can include artifacts prepared by the
teacher, students, or others• Evidence is NOT personal opinion or bias. It is
selected through the observer’s and/or teachers’ use of professional judgment
![Page 30: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
A Quick Quiz- Evidence or Opinion?• The class was out of control• All but 2 students participated in the
exercise.• The students didn’t understand
expectations.• The teacher stopped to review
instructions when the teacher saw that students were of-task.
• The students were engaged in the lesson.
![Page 31: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Let’s see how a pre-conference might look. Remember much of Domain 1 is captured here.
• Listen for evidence of planning from the teacher• Write down evidence
gathered from the planning conference using the Planning Conference Handout
![Page 32: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Classroom Observation• Focuses on Domains 2 & 3• One observation may not capture every component-
over time a teacher should demonstrate them all**• Observer should– Focus on evidence/facts and avoid interpretation or
opinion (adj/adv.)– Be familiar w/components so they are recognized
during lesson– Note what teacher says/does as well as questions,
statements, actions (verbal/non verbal)• Recommended to give teacher notes after visit- helps
w/transparency
![Page 33: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
As you watch the brief video clip, write down evidence that you note as it applies to the components ofDomain 2 & 3
It takes time to be familiar
with the components.
Focus on differentiating between D2 &
D3
![Page 34: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Share evidence you have collected with colleagues at your table. •Discuss domain & component matches. Use the Classroom Observation Record Handout to organize thoughts.•Was it evidence or opinion?Be prepared to share with the group.
![Page 35: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Preparing for the post-conference
• Write a brief summary (few paragraphs) recording major events of lesson based on formal observation notes such that a non-observer would get sense of what was observed
• Match observation notes to the components within each of the domains & write samples of evidence observed down
• Highlight words/phrases within levels of performance that best characterize the lesson
![Page 36: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Post-Observation Conference or “Reflection Conference”
• Conversation designed to promote teacher thinking and growth
• Provides perspective on Domain 4• Encouraged to have the teacher self-assess in
preparation for this conference• Chance to “compare notes” and identify
strengths/areas for improvement• Discussion should include a written summary
that captures views of both parties
![Page 37: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Informal observations• Unannounced observation of teaching• Last about 5-10 minutes• May be used as evidence in a teacher’s evaluation
(depends on negotiated contract)• Danielson’s suggested procedure– Take notes on lesson (see informal observation form)– (Opt) Leave note for teacher w/brief supportive comment
about lesson– Speak w/teacher briefly after to have a professional
conversation about aspects seen– If form used, note relevant aspects observed in domains
![Page 38: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Levels of Performance
• Levels represent the performance of teaching not of teachers
• It is natural for teachers to move among ratings • Higher levels reflect experience as well as expertise• Most effective when multiple measures are used
before determining a level of performance
• 4 Levels within each of the Domains & Components• Unsatisfactory (1)• Basic (2)• Proficient (3)• Distinguished (4)
![Page 39: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Levels of Performance DescriptorsUnsatisfactory (1)The teacher does not yet appear to understand the concepts underlying the
component. Working on the fundamental practices associated with the elements will enable the teacher to grow and develop in this area.
Basic (2)The teacher appears to understand the concepts underlying the component and
attempts to implement its elements. But implementation is sporadic, intermittent, or otherwise not entirely successful. Additional reading, discussion, visiting classrooms of other teachers, and experience will enable the teacher to become proficient in this area.
Proficient (3)The teacher clearly understands the concepts underlying the component and
implements it well. Most experienced, capable teachers will regard themselves and be regarded by others as performing at this level.
Distinguished (4)Teachers at this level are considered “master teachers” and make a contribution to
the field, both in and outside their school. Their classroom seems to run itself and offers a highly engaging and motivational environment.
![Page 40: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Preparing to assign levels
• Training is core for evaluators to determine levels of performance
• Ratings can be assigned as part of each evaluation and/or at the end of the school year
• Teachers can self-reflect and determine ratings as part of the process
• Some elements are not best judged by observation
![Page 41: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
What’s next if you choose Danielson?• Spend more time learning and understanding the
Framework– Domains, components, & sub-components– Documenting evidence during observation– Judging levels of performance
• Consider the forms of evidence your school will use to judge teacher performance in the four domains
• Develop the format and structure of yearly evaluation
![Page 42: Is Danielson or Marzano Right for You?](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816715550346895ddb8241/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
