This administrator academy is for district leaders who are renewing their designations required to evaluate teachers. This academy, in combination with AA #1801, meets ISBE's retraining requirements for teacher evaluators.
Participants will learn how to:
1.) Use assessments and measurement models identified by
the joint committee in determining the student growth
attributable to individual teachers/principals and
understand how different types of assessments are used
for measuring growth;
2.) Use data from the evaluation rubric, other evidence
collected, and best practices relative to evaluating
student growth to link teacher/principal and school-level
professional;
3.) Create, in collaboration with teachers/principals,
supportive, targeted professional development plans
that consider past results, contribute to professional
growth, and assist teachers/principals in aligning
professional development and goal-setting to school;
and,
4.) Communicate evaluation outcomes and findings in
constructive and supportive ways that enable
teachers/principals to set goals and improve practice.
The academy is presented online via Zoom.
All materials associated with the academy will be sent at least one week prior to the training.
