Teachers require different types of feedback, support and opportunities to grow as professionals. Evidence collection should be differentiated to provide flexibility and options that reflect each teacher’s job responsibilities and support school, complex areas, and state priorities. The criteria and expectation for Core Professionalism are articulated in the Domain 4 rubric. The domain level rubric provides more flexibility to educators and provides a more holistic picture of teachers’ responsibilities. The components that make up Domain 4 include: (read the D4: section)

6. How is Core Professionalism Rated?
-The rating is based on the Hawaii Adapted Framework for Teaching Core Professionalism Rubric and the Tripod Survey.
-The Components and the Tripod Survey are not rated individually or averaged.
-The Components are not rated individually or averaged.
-A single Component may be important enough to influence the final Core Professionalism rating.
EES Manual p. 16
Give an example of last bullet….family engagement

7. -Evidence focuses on quality not quantity -School administrators and teachers have a conversation to clarify expectation specific to their school context -Evidence is collected throughout the course of the year -Evaluators determine rating based on a preponderance of evidence.
Evidence collection should focus on quality not quantity and should be clearly connected to the Domain 4 rubric. More evidence will not necessarily lead to a higher rating. The right pieces of evidence will speak to a teacher’s broader professionalism traits and typical practice.

10. Self-Assessment
Take five minutes to review the Proficient column of this self-assessment. Think about evidence that you would be able to collect reflective of these indicators. Jot your ideas down and be prepared to share them with an Elbow Partner. Five minutes…go!
Find an elbow partner and discuss your evidence.
Teachers are encouraged to complete a self-assessment on the indicators of Domain 4 to identify areas of focus. Unlike other measures in the EES which look exactly the same for every teacher, this measure is intended to be differentiated based on the individual teacher and school context. Teachers should have a conversation with school administrators at the beginning of the year to clarify specific expectations about evidence collection .

15. Tripod Introduction Video
Moving the Tripod Student Survey into Core Professionalism provides an opportunity for classroom teachers and administrators to engage in professional dialogue about the results. Teachers are now expected to reflect and act upon their Tripod Student Survey results as part of the overall Core Professionalism rating.
The following video will give you a better understanding of Tripod student surveys – specifically, the research and philosophical background, an overview of the 7Cs and the roles that teachers, students and administrators play in survey administration.

16. Teaching Practices: Tripod Seven Cs
Understanding Hawaii's Educator Effectiveness System
Teaching Practices: Tripod Seven Cs
Caring
Confer
You must talk with me to help me understand your ideas and support your learning.
Captivating
Conferring
Control
Our class is orderly, on task and respectful, with learning as our first priority.
“My classmates behave the way that the teacher wants them”
Controlling
Clarifying
Challenging
Each teaching practice item in the survey is categorized into 1 of 7 “C’s” – Caring, Captivating, Conferring, Controlling, Clarifying, Challenging, and Consolidating.
Each “C” speaks to something teachers do, and the corresponding survey items address what the students experience when the teacher is doing what the “C” describes. For example, when a teacher is “Conferring”, students perceive that their ideas are respected and their contributions are valuable.
To get an idea of actual survey items that correspond with each C, let’s take a look at one of the C’s – Control – that is often misinterpreted. Often, when people see control, they think about a controlling or domineering atmosphere. This is not what Dr. Ferguson had in mind. Instead, “Control” speaks to a classroom that is orderly where the teacher is in control and exhibits good classroom management. An example of a survey item that may get to this “C” says “My classmates behave the way the teacher wants them to” – here the student is able to provide insight into how well they perceive their classroom is being managed.
On an actual survey, all questions are mixed up so students do not know which questions address engagement and which address teaching practice. Also, the seven “C’s” are not mentioned.
Consolidating

17. Tripod Teacher Reports
Understanding Hawaii's Educator Effectiveness System
Tripod Teacher Reports
Let's take a look at a sample teacher report. Approximately 3-4 weeks after the survey administration has been completed, teachers will receive password-protected score reports. These reports include a summary of percent favorability for each of the 7Cs as well as a Composite or overall favorability score.
The page you are viewing is a summary page within the teacher report displaying these scores.

This information comes right off of the Hawaii Adapted Core Professionalism Rubric. At the end of the year, evaluators should consider all the evidence of professionalism and assign a level of performance for Core Professionalism using the domain 4 rubric. The evaluator then selects the appropriate level of performance based on the Domain 4 rubric, which can be downloaded on the Hawaii DOE Intranet.

25. Understanding Hawaii's Educator Effectiveness System
Levels of performance
Distinguished = 4
Proficient = 3
Basic = 2
Once the evaluator has assigned a level of performance for Core Professionalism, that rating is given a numerical value so that is can be calculated as a part of the entire Teacher Practice half of the EES.
Unsatisfactory = 0

26. Tripod Survey Results Individual pieces of evidence will not be rated.
A separate rating should not be assigned to the Tripod reflection.
Administrator includes teacher’s reflection on and action to improve Tripod Student Survey results into the overall Core Professionalism rating as one source of evidence.
Core Professionalism is viewed and rated as a whole. Individual pieces of evidence (components within Domain 4 and Tripod reflection and action) do not receive a rating. However, a single indicator may be important enough to influence the final Core Professionalism rating. Core Professionalism is not an average between Domain 4 and Tripod; rather it is the evaluator’s judgment supported within documentation.
