12. Let’s Talk About Calibration Evaluators need to calibrate every 6 months DPI is suggesting a window be opened by the end of January and calibration complete by end of the school year. You decide how long the window stays open. WI is using the Compliance Model 2 videos (15 minutes or so each) Collect evidence Score Compare with Master Scorer

13. Focus Administrator

16. Things to consider locally: o Timing and length of your calibration window o Will you set calibration ‘cut scores’? o Is there a point where a principal should not be conducting observations? (But don’t remove them!) o Is there a point at which an uncalibrated principal should resume calibration?

17. How should we plan to support your principals? Calibration half day for anyone? RtI for those with calibration issues?

18. Observations, Tagging, and Scoring Scoring doesn’t take place at the time of the observation (mini or formal). Tagging does take place shortly after the observation. Practice with CESA4 Training Accounts

Status changes from In Progress to Completed (with green checkmark) Open or Edit means the document is in draft form. Review means the document has been submitted and is not editable by the educator. Request Revision gives educator edit rights again.

29. Teachscape Tips The “HELP” button is specific to each screen – use it freely!!! Saving documents as a PDF, then printing produces a shorter document. Internet Explorer is not a good browser for Teachscape. Selecting the Summary Tab in each section allows you to see what has been submitted by both educator and evaluator.
