Student Performance Measures
1. Divide up the teacher and/or principal criteria so pairs have one or two to examine.
2. Teacher: Use the At-A-Glance document to find where the criteria are represented in your framework. Principal: Use the AWSP framework.
3. Make notes about what the framework says that adds clarity for each criteria.

Portfolio Assessments
PlanningClassroom Observation
Measures and Evidence Used to determine the teacher’s or principal’s
performance along a continuum that indicates the extent to which the criteria have been met or exceeded
Should have strong correlation to criteria being evaluated
Brainstorm: Measures and Evidence For each criterion:
Consider the notes you took from the framework, and read (or reread) what your rubric says for that criterion.
Discuss the kinds of evidence that could be collected to show evidence of that criterion
Record an “x” in the box if that is something to consider
Brainstorm an initial list of the specific evidence sources
Resources: NCCTQ report, Summary

Job Alike Groups Find one or two other people with your
same job role Share potential sources of evidence and
discuss
In District Teams Share ideas gathered from partner and
job-alike conversations Make notes of next steps to take during
planning time
Michaela MillerJim KovalOSPI-TPEP Project Leads
Team Planning Ideas Update Communication Plan: Who else needs
this information? Identify decisions that need to be made given
the “rules” and suggested teacher evaluation process and begin decision making process.
Continue working to identify measures and evidence.

Implementing
Articulate the ways an instructional and leadership framework can operationalize the revised evaluation
system to improve teaching and learning
Analyze the instructional frameworks to support district decision-making in selecting an instructional framework
and a leadership framework
34
Team Time Debrief
Each team share:1. One decision you made today (could be a key
decision, a preliminary decision, a change of course, etc.)
2. One of the immediate next steps you are taking when you return to your district

Reflecting

Whip Around and Plus/Delta Debrief
Whip Around: One significant “ah-ha moment” today
Take a few minutes and create at least two sticky notes for the Plus/Delta Chart on your way out. Plus: What was a real “plus” of today’s session?
What went well and should be repeated? Delta: Where is there room for improvement and
change?
