We are building a system to manage and perform Evaluations: Guiding Principles… Seek LEA input throughout the process Build upon existing Educator Information System (EIS) Operationalize State-wide Model Enable LEA Flexibility Provide for a link between evaluations and professional development Ensure secure access to protect privacy Verify privacy of data to ensure LEA ownership 3 Add an Option “Evaluations” Add an Option “Evaluations”

We have begun the development effort! 11 Demo – in just one minute (or two). But first…

12 PerformancePLUS provides access to multiple measures and enables collection of evidence that can be used in evaluations. (Student names are fictitious) In addition to an evaluation tool, we want to help LEAs gather meaningful measurements

Existing reports allow evaluators to look at NECAP growth – to consider ‘shared attributes’ or student outcomes for a given teacher. (Student names are fictitious) 13

LEAs can also consider student performance changes from year to year. 14

15 We are building state model evaluation indicators into our system. Moving Forward Best practice surveys (e.g., student survey, climate survey, parent survey, peer survey). Summary reports (e.g., growth at the school level or multiple teachers at once). NWEA and SAT growth factors. And we are providing support and training to schools.

16 We have launched a social network for Educator Effectiveness.

17 Users can share knowledge, receive on-line training and contribute to the community themselves.

Now for the Demo! A tool to manage the evaluation process. 18 Demo
