Teachscape Focus is a complete system for building a common language and shared understanding of teaching effectiveness among observers and teachers based on Danielson's Framework for Teaching (FfT). Districts who are utilizing the state framework with Teachscape will need to certify as trained observers using the FfT. All evaluators completing observations of educators for the purpose of educator effectiveness scoring must be certified through Teachscape Focus. Superintendents who are evaluating principals who are evaluating teachers with the framework may also want to be familiar with the framework. In addition, EE coaches are highly recommended to participate. With training, scoring practice, participants can pass this rigorous proficiency assessment. Teachscape Focus helps increase confidence in the evaluation process. It also builds a structure for the ongoing conversations that are part of a continuous improvement process.
Note: A follow-up calibration for observers is required each semester. This calibration can be done independently by the local district.
Cost: CESA 5 School Improvement Consortium: $50
