Student Learning & Achievement
What is the intent of the statute?
Student learning is the main driver of an effective educator’s practices. A great teacher continually assesses student achievement against standards & uses results to modify their practice, to intervene when students struggle, and to differentiate.
Educator & summative evaluator should collaborate to decide if goals and data to measure are appropriate for their role and impact on students.
35% Student Learning & Achievement
“must use data from valid and reliable assessments aligned to state and local academic standards and
must use state and local measures of student growth that may include value-added models or student learning goals to determine 35 percent of teacher
evaluation results”
Considerations to meet statute
Student growth (35%) Student learning goals Marshall team – Divide 35% among:
District wide goal School improvement plan Personal goal
Peer Review, Student Engagement & Individual Growth Plans
“…must establish a three-year professional review cycle for each teacher that includes an individual growth and development plan, a peer review process, the opportunity to participate in a professional learning community under paragraph (a), and at least one summative evaluation performed by a qualified and trained evaluator such as a school administrator. For the years when a tenured teacher is not evaluated by a qualified and trained evaluator, the teacher must be evaluated by a peer review;”
Considerations to meet statute
Peer coaching process Consider best practices Consider observations of student engagement
Who’s Engaged?
Student Engagement
“must use longitudinal data on student engagement and connection, and other student outcome measures explicitly aligned with the elements of curriculum for which teachers are responsible”
Considerations to meet statute Individual Growth & Development Plan
Goals based on self assessment, data, district & site goals, previous summative evaluations, etc.
May include student engagement data & peer review May align personal goals over a three year plan to
support the Growth and Development Plan attainment with evidence!
Portfolio option
Possible option to e-portfolio to gather and retain evidence If submitted, considered as evidence in summative evaluation
• 2c(11) “must give teachers not meeting professional teaching standards under clauses (3) through (10) support to improve through a teacher improvement process that includes established goals and timelines; and
• (12) “must discipline a teacher for not making a adequate progress in the teacher improvement process under clause (11) that may include a last chance warning, termination, discharge, nonrenewal, transfer to a different position, a leave of absence, or other discipline on school administrator determines if appropriate.”
Teacher Improvement Plan
Considerations to meet statute
Coordinate staff development with evaluation process and outcome Need to continue training and staff development to
grow ~ both individually and collectively. Supports growth and development plan Ongoing staff development determined based on overall
results
