Educator Effectiveness Dr. Rebecca Garland Tom Tomberlin Every Student READY

North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Why the Evaluation Process? Assumptions Educating students is not an easy task We can all improve 57

North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Why the Evaluation Process? The reason we observe, gather student growth data, get feedback and discuss our practice is to improve the learning of our students. 58

North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Why the Evaluation Process? What have we learned thus far? 59

Low 1 High 2 Younger Math19351825 Reading184221 Older Math15601547 Reading183301 Two groups of students captured: Younger Cohort: began Grade 5 in SY 2010-11 Older Cohort: began Grade 6 in SY 2010-11 1 Students in the “Low Growth” category have consecutive years of teachers in the Does Not Meet Expected Growth category 2 Students in the “High Growth” category have consecutive years of teachers in the Exceeds Expected Growth category North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Impact of Teachers 60

What this tells us: Teaching matters deeply in student outcomes. 65

North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Updated Evaluation Results SY 2011-12SY 2012-13 66

What this tells us: Student Growth, as measured using value-added data, and ratings on Standards 1-5 continue to be very, very loosely correlated. Additionally, it appears that we are measuring one, holistic element of “good teaching” rather than five discrete standards of practice. 67

North Carolina Educator Evaluation Process Reflection and Questions How good of a job are we doing at recognizing instructional practices that predict student learning? Does the conventional wisdom that critical feedback is demoralizing to teachers hold true? 72

As Testing and Accountability Evolves…  Online Testing  Continue to encourage online testing but continue to offer paper/pencil option  Piloting summative assessments and NC Final Exams on TestNav in 2014-15  Reporting  Considering how to have consistency in reports: NC Report Card, READY Report  Math I banked scores 93
