We reflected on the use of evaluation as the stick to fix or remove teachers didn’t work because it never dealt with attempts to focus on student learning and the improvement of teaching based on results.

We also talked about the barriers to doing formative evaluation that often led to ignoring the problem and hoping it goes away.

So let’s bring back those good feelings we had about teacher evaluation at the end of our session in April.

And I quote… At your table, discuss how the quote relates to teacher evaluation. Read you quote and share a 1-3 sentence summary of your conversation. To highlight the paradigm shifts we experienced, do quotes. Person from table to the front – quickly go through.
