So… How can we agree

to do “D”?

We Need a New Mental Model…

We are now Evaluated as a School

AYP

We will soon be Evaluated at the Teacher Level

AYPTeacher Evaluation

How can we shift this Conversation from

Evaluation to

Collaboration?

Because here’s What’s coming…

Common Core State Standards

and

Next Generation Assessments

Common Core State Standards

Fewer… Clearer… Higher…

ALL students will Leave high school

Ready for college and career…

Regardless of disability, Language, or subgroup status.

And they….

Have the opportunity to SHOW what they Know and can do

”The CCSS and their assessments will do to teachers what AYP did

to administrators” Bill Daggett

We Need a New Mental Model…

A New Map!

AssessmentsAssessments

ICLE Reports

95% of principals request follow-up training and support to implement the R/R Framework in their schools

Teachers are typically hard at work during the classroom visitations, but instruction is predominately teacher-

centered and students are passive learners

ICLE Reports

Quad A is traditional instruction and most often measured by

student recital of facts or basic recall

Quad A classrooms are NOT synonymous with poor instruction

A Thought Experiment…

Collaborative Instructional Review

What is the Collaborative Instructional Review?

Can be used to Improve…

Student AchievementTeacher Readiness

Quality/Effectiveness of Instruction Professional Dialogue/Learning

Through…

The Lens of the Rigor and Relevance

Framework

Who’s It For?

Districts/Schools that…

Have foundational knowledge of the Rigor and Relevance Framework

and want to take it to the next level

Want to develop a fair, equitable Teacher Evaluation System

How is it Unique? 80/20 Rule

Person observing instruction will spend 80% of their time in class looking at, and listening to what

students are doing and saying

20% of the time listening to the teacher

Collaborative Instructional Review

The CIR is a highly effective and cost efficient way to help prepare all staff to meet the

challenge of the Common Core State Standards

and the assessments that follow.
