Initial Training Days 1-2 (Aug 7 & 8, 2018)
Teacher Performance Evaluation System
TPES - System Learning includes the qualities of effective teachers, the performance standards for teachers, the data sources that are collected in teacher evaluation, and how to document evidence of teacher practices. In addition, the training includes video simulations to practice the documentation of evidence in written and observable formats. The preponderance of evidence is the target for collecting data - for both the evaluator and the teacher.
Initial Training Day 3 (Aug 9, 2018)
Frontline Education Evaluation Platform- The electronic tool being used to house all of the information regarding observations, artifacts, survey data, pre and post observation conferences, and the summative evaluation is introduced in a part day session to familiarize administrators to the tool that will assist them in scheduling and completing the process for teacher, educational specialist, and school administrator evaluation. Simulations will be a part of this training to allow practice in a safe, skill-building atmosphere.
Initial Training Day 4 (Aug 23, 2018)
T/ES Calibration Certification-This workshop is in preparation to complete the summative ratings on the rubric. Is a preponderance of evidence influencing the rubric rating? Is there evidence to support your comments? Are you prepared to recommend dismissal, continuing employment, or an Improvement Plan? This is the training that brings the previous learning together to allow you to make sound decisions as an evaluator. Simulations will be a part of this training to allow practice in a safe, skill-building atmosphere. Evaluators of teachers will reinforce their summative decision-making incorporating the use of the online evaluator certification tool, Frontline Education. Per state requirements, evaluators of teachers must complete the Effectiveness Project evaluator certification requirements prior to using the Effectiveness Project evaluation model.
