iObservation Evaluation Toolo Web-based platform for providing feedback and

recommendations

o 4-point rating scaleso Elements that are observed during an observation will be given a rating

of 0-4o Elements that are not observed will not be given a ratingo A summative rating will be calculated based on the cumulative ratings

over the course of the year

o Narrative comments will be added as appropriateo more detailed feedback on specific elementso general feedbacko recommendations

Marzano Observation Form Completed on the computer Only a subset of elements will be rated during

a single observation Components of the Observation Form

Marzano Introduction

Getting started with theMarzano Teacher Evaluation Model

based on Dr. Robert Marzano’sArt & Science of Teaching

When teachers used Marzano strategies…

…typical student achievement increased by

16 percentile points.

Marzano Teacher Evaluation ModelWhen these strategies are used, here is the typical effect on raising student achievement (percentile gain corrected):

Building Vocabulary 20%Effort and Recognition 14%Graphic Organizers 13%Homework 15%Identifying Similarities and Differences 20%

Interactive Games 20%Nonlinguistic Representations 17%

Note Taking 17%Practice 14%Setting Goals/Objectives 25%Student Discussion/Chunking 17%Summarizing 19%Tracking Student Progress and Using Scoring Scales

New strategies are created to meet needs of specific students or class as a whole in order for the desired effect to be evident in all students.

Strategy is used and monitored to see if it has desired effect with the majority of students.

Strategy is used correctly but the majority of students are not monitored for the desired effect of the strategy.

Strategy is used but pieces or components are missing.

Strategy is called for, but not used.
