LoTi / H.E.A.T.

KIDS / SSOS ConsultantLoves Park, IL
A series of frameworks that looks at teaching practices, student engagement, technology use, and evidence of Bloom’s Taxonomy in the classroom.
Developed by Dr. Chris Moersch

H.E.A.T. Framework
• Higher order thinking
skills
• Engaged Learning
• Authentic Connections
• Technology Use
Student Framework
H.E.A.T.• 4 components • 6 levels in each component• Levels range from 1 at the lowest to 6 at the highest
Teacher Frameworks
LoTi – Levels of Technology Integration• 8 levels ranging from 0-6, including a split level 4. • 1st paragraph may be confusing –
focus on 2nd paragraph.
CIP – Current Instructional Practices• 8 levels ranging from 0-7
PCU – Personal Computer Use• 8 levels ranging from 0-7
Let’s Apply the Frameworks!
Observation Tools
• Rating sheet• H.E.A.T. Framework• LoTi Sniff Test• CIP Sniff Test• Applying Bloom’s Taxonomy
Observation Notes
• In this environment, we don’t have background information on the teacher or the lesson.
• In your environment, pre- and post-observation conversations may be helpful, along with your personal knowledge of the teacher.
Observation Notes
No right or wrong answers
The answer is not what’s important; it’s the discussion that matters.
This is about developing consistent definitions and processes. The more colleagues discuss their observations with each other, the more consistent will be their observations. You are creating a common language.
LoTi organization will offer their ideas on some of the levels, but in most cases you can make a strong argument on either side – a level above or below - of their recommendation.
3rd Grade: Food Chains
Higher order thinking
1. Students taking notes only; no questions asked 2. Student learning/questioning at remembering
level 3. Student learning/questioning at understanding
level4. Student learning/questioning at applying level 5. Student learning/questioning at analyzing level 6. Student learning/questioning at
evaluating/creating levels
Student learning/questioning at understanding level
1. Students report what they have learned only 2. Students report what they have learned only;
collaborate with others 3. Students given limited options to solve a teacher-
directed problem 4. Students given limited options to solve a teacher
directed problem; collaborate with others 5. Students collaborate to define the task, the
process, and/or the solution6. Students collaborate to define the task, the
process, and/or the solution; collaboration extends beyond the classroom
Engaged learning
Students report what they have learned only; collaborate with others
Authentic connections
1. The learning experience is missing or too vague to determine relevance
2. The learning experience represents a group of connected activities, but provides no real world application
3. The learning experience provides limited real world relevance.
4. The learning experience provides extensive real world relevance
5. The learning experience provides real world relevance and opportunity for students to apply their learning to a real world situation
6. The learning experience is directly relevant to students and involves creating a product that has a purpose beyond the classroom that directly impacts the students
The learning experience provides limited real world relevance.
Technology Use
1. No technology use is evident2. Technology use is used only by the teacher3. Technology use appears to be an add-on and is not
needed or task completion4. Technology use is somewhat connected to task
completion5. Technology use is directly connected to task
completion with shared or limited resources6. Technology use is directly connected to task
completion with one-to-one or unlimited resources
Technology use is directly connected to task completion with shared or limited resources

This is not a “Gotcha” process.
Must be implemented as a non-evaluative growth opportunity.
Trust is critical.
Important note about LoTi
Honor every teacher
LoTi helps guide professional development.
Start where they are and help them grow.
Surveys and observations lead to great
conversations. Surveys and observations can help guide
professional development. Observations can include not only H.E.A.T.,
but also LoTi and CIP levels. Helpful to give observers the “Applying
Bloom’s Taxonomy” document
Lessons learned from LoTi
There is usually a direct correlation between
CIP and LoTi levels and HEAT levels.
Technology use high levels of learning.

LoTi Observer
LoTi Observer is an online tool that automatically calculates a teacherʼs LoTi Level based on an administratorʼs recorded walkthrough observations using an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch PDA.
LoTi Observer uses the H.E.A.T. Observation Form to focus on the key components of 21st Century skills as they apply to the learner; otherwise known as H.E.A.T.—Higher order thinking, Engaged learning, Authentic connections, and Technology use.
