8. Identifying the Evidence
What is evidence and how do we use it meaningfully?

9. Lesson 3: Identifying the Evidence
Types of Evidence
Direct observation of administrator practice occurs when the evaluator is physically present in the school or venue where the administrator is present and leading. These observations include but are not limited to leadership team meetings, administrators observing teacher practice, or administrator to teacher feedback conversations.
Indirect observation of administrator practice occurs when the evaluator is observing or reviewing systems or processes that have been developed and implemented by the administrator but operate without the administrator present.
These indirect observations include but are not limited to attending teacher team meetings or collaboration sessions (where the administrator is not present) or observing teacher practice across multiple classrooms.
