Purpose and Intent Mrs. Monica Holmes Dr. Michael Brooks OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

The task of the excellent teacher is to stimulate “apparently ordinary” people to unusual effort. The tough problem is not in identifying winners; it is in making winners of ordinary people. OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

Outcomes Gain an understanding of: The purpose of FfT How Schools understand Danielson's FfT How Schools have implemented FfT How all systemic initiatives connect to FfT How OTD can provide additional support to schools OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

School-Based Implementation of FFt What does FfT Look Like in Your Building? OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

The Framework for Teaching The Framework for Teaching is a researched based set of components of instruction, grounded in a constructivist view of learning and teaching. The Framework may be used as a foundation of a school or district’s mentoring, coaching, professional development, and teacher evaluation process, thus linking all those activities together and helping teachers become more thoughtful practitioners.

In a nutshell….. Builds teacher capacity Enhance Professional Growth Foundation for mentoring, coaching and PD Builds Instructional Leadership Capacity Helps promote professional conversations Helps promote teacher reflection OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

What FfT is Not… I Gotcha Not an evaluation tool Not sole data point to teacher evaluation Not a personal assessment OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE

The Complexity of Teaching “After 30 years of doing such work, I have concluded that classroom teaching… is perhaps the most complex, most challenging, and most demanding, subtle, nuanced, and frightening activity that our species has ever invented.... The only time a physician could possibly encounter a situation of comparable complexity would be in the emergency room of a hospital during or after a natural disaster” Lee Shulman, The Wisdom of Practice, 2004 OFFICE OF TALENT DEVELOPMENT- FFT SUMMER INSTITUTE
