5 A B LUEPRINT FOR T EACHER E VALUATION Clear definition of teaching (the “what”) Instruments and procedures that provide evidence of teaching (the “how”) Trained evaluators who can make consistent judgments based on evidence Process for teachers to understand the evaluative criteria Process for making final judgment

21 DAY 1 District- Initiated Training Teachscape Classroom Walk- Throughs (CWT) Classroom Walk-Throughs In collaboration with Teachscape, all administrators participated in training designed to support the development of instructional leaders as researchers and analyzers. Training focused on the efficient collection, use, and analysis of critical data sources. Instructional leaders have been equipped with a process and technology too to help them promote, support, and sustain data-informed instructional improvement and student learning.

22 DAY 2 Facilitate the Work of the District Evaluation Pilot Advisory Committee (DEPAC) The Role of the DEPAC The factors that will contribute to the successful implementation of the Framework for Teaching as the foundation of the district’s evaluation system, with the support of the Framework as updated/revised at the district level.
