Improving Student Achievement through Teacher Observation & Feedback Year 1: In principals spent the year deepening their knowledge on the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP) and practicing their knowledge of quick classroom visits focused on teaching standards (Santa Cruz New Teacher Center) Year 2: This year, , the sessions have been focused to follow-up and extend last years PD on examining good teaching, rigor, equity, and developing our observation skills in quick classroom walkthroughs (Ed Porter)

Overview of Sessions Session 1 (9/26/06): Inquiry into Good Teaching: What is it? Session 2 (10/24/06): Understanding the six areas of teaching practice Session 3 (1/23/07): What does rigor look like? Session 4 (2/20/07): Practicum: Classroom Walkthrough at Chipman MS Session 5 (3/27/07): Developing and supporting rigor & good teaching Session 6 (4/24/07): Practicum: Classroom Walkthrough TBD Session 7 (5/15/07): Balancing equity & excellence, cultural transformation, managing change

Good Teaching Supervising That Supports Rigor & Good Teaching Rigor All Students Performing at or above Standard Equity & Excellence We will explore each of these four areas of focus!

Why focus on classroom walkthroughs? It is a tool of short 3-5 minute informal, frequent observations of classrooms using a focused protocol to help principals focus on a specific area(s) Build a school-wide and district-wide climate for coaching support from principals and reflection on teaching practice One critical way to gather important data related to curricular, instructional, and programmatic decisions that teachers are making all day everyday One important way for principals to provide thoughtful, reflective feedback that will lead to maximizing instruction, i.e., widens repertoire of strategies Allows principal to be a instructional expert & pivotal agent for maximizing student achievement

Logistics Budget: Title I & Title II Each session is planned with Ed Porter and the Educational Services Team with principal feedback Next Steps Principals will participate in a professional development needs assessment Planning next years PD will include differentiated training focused on building: Instructional leadership (school planning, climate for walkthroughs, data analysis) Technical leadership (budget development)
