Presentation One: Evaluation of Teacher Effectiveness

Purpose of the PowerPoint Presentation.

This is an opportunity for you to demonstrate your ability to use measurement tools for evaluating teaching effectiveness and your understanding of how evaluation of teaching quality can lead to improved instruction.

Your Task.

Observe an exemplary or any K-12 teacher’s classroom and determine the degree of teaching effectiveness through the use of the Danielson rubric or your school’s teacher evaluation rubric. During the observation, you must take field notes, evidence notes, or use a rating rubric to record the observed behavior.

Your Procedure.

Observe the teacher in relation to the Danielson’s rubric or your school’s teacher evaluation rubric. Collect your observation data in the form of field notes, evidence notes, or rating rubrics.
Report your analysis of the observation data in relation to these categories: a) when and where the observation(s) took place and which observation rubrics were used, b) what you observed during the observation lesson, and c) a summary of the unnamed teacher’s teaching effectiveness.
Identify what you think are the three most important aspects of teaching that are presented in the Danielson rubric or your school’s teacher evaluation rubric. Provide a rationale as to why these are the three most important aspects of teaching for you.
Describe how you, as an administrator, can use information gathered through the use of the teaching evaluation rubric/s to improve instructional quality at your school.
Prepare a presentation of your finding in the power point.

Your PowerPoint Presentation Format.

Prepare a ten-minute presentation of your finding. Make a copy of a handout that summarizes your presentation. Your handout should be typed, no more than two-single spaced pages, and in Times New Roman 12-point font. The purpose is to present your findings. Your presentation will include the following:

a) A brief summary of your observation results about the unnamed teacher. This includes a description of the following: a) when and where the observation(s) took place and which observation rubric/s that were used, b) what you observed during the observation, and c) a summary of the unnamed teacher’s teaching effectiveness.

b) A brief summary of the teacher evaluation rubric/s.

c) A brief description of the three most important aspects of teaching that are presented in the Danielson model or your school’s teacher evaluation rubric. Provide a rationale as to why these are the three most important aspects of teaching for you.

d) A brief description of how you, as an administrator, can use information gathered by these two teaching evaluation rubrics to improve instructional quality at your school.

e) Hand in to the course instructor your handout.
