7 Learning Gains Orientation

8 Instructional Silos The goal of developing Instructional Silos is to place teachers in sub- groups of similar teaching assignments as equitably and as fairly as possible. For example, World History teachers will be grouped with other World History teachers and not with Language Arts teachers.

9 Instructional Silos Due to the new district assessment process, teacher silos will be updated this year to reflect current teaching assignments and district assessment categories. “School-Wide Silos” will continue to be used for instructional personnel without students directly scheduled (Guidance Counselor, Media Spec, etc.) Semester 2 student schedules will be utilized when developing district instructional silos Silo development will include consideration of the teacher assignment within the district

10 Instructional Silos – cont. Instructional personnel will be divided into grade levels: Elementary, Middle, High School Once divided into grade levels, teachers will be sub-divided into instructional groups (silos) based on their primary teaching assignment Prior to the end of the 3rd quarter, Principals and teachers may meet to confirm and/or reconcile silo assignments We appreciate everyone’s effort in making this process work as well as possible.

11 Learning Gains Plan Policies: Learning gains will make up 75% of final score. FCAT scores will be used where applicable (grades/ subjects tested by FCAT) SAT-10 scores will be used where applicable (grades K-2) Courses/areas not related to FCAT/SAT-10 subjects or grade levels, will utilize District Pre/Post Tests

12 Learning Gains Plan Policies (continued): Gains for teachers without students assigned will be based on school-wide FCAT scores. Students assigned to teachers at Survey 3 time (February) will be included. Only students enrolled in the same school in October and February will be included. Only students with both pre and post-test scores will be included.

13 Learning Gains Gains Calculation: Step 1: Achievement level of students on pre and post-test is determined. Step 2: Total points for each teacher are determined by placing student scores in a value table.

14 Learning Gains Sample Value Table Middle FCAT Reading Prior Year Level Current Year Level Low 1High 12345 Low 10110315405500600 High 1-5070160265325450 2-70-50130180300425 3-150-105-75175240260 4-200-180-135-65225250 5-250-200-150-13035240

15 Learning Gains Gains Calculation: Step 3: Teachers are ranked by value table points within their silo. Step 4: Ranking within silo is converted to 75 points.
