EVALUATION FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH

Educator evaluation systems should align with local district goals and values

Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) is framework to help districts design evaluation systems for professional growth Aligned to Ohio’s standards for teachers Based 50 percent on measures of teacher

performance, and 50 percent on student growth Provides targeted professional learning opportunities

based on results of evaluation

PIONEERING THROUGH OHIO TIF

Through TIF, districts are designing and implementing evaluation systems that: Support local values and goals Bring out the best in teachers Focus on student outcomes

TIF districts will use the teacher performance side of the OTES framework in 2012-2013 A year ahead of statewide implementation Phased-in approach Opportunity to be creative and test out the system

OTES FRAMEWORK

(OTES Evaluation Framework, Ohio Department of Education)

Page 9: EVALUATIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH Ohio TIF and OTES

2011-2012: All Ohio TIF districts (plus 100 other districts statewide) participating in OTES pilot

2012-2013: All Ohio TIF districts begin phased-in implementation of OTES framework Ohio TIF districts must have MOU in place by April 1, 2012

affirming they will implement in 2012-2013 2013-2014: All Ohio districts must begin full OTES

implementation Ohio districts must adopt or align to OTES framework by

June 1, 2013 through local board policy

CURRENT STATE OF THE WORK

CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES

Challenges Capacity for

implementation Fairness in

evaluations for different types of educators

Reliability and accuracy of data

Opportunities 2012-2013 phase-in,

transition year Be innovative and

creative Provide feedback to

inform statewide implementation

Page 11: EVALUATIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH Ohio TIF and OTES

USDOE has provided flexibility for Ohio TIF districts around OTES implementation

In 2012-2013, TIF districts must implement teacher performance components: Two 30-minute observations and walkthroughs for all

teachers Ensuring inter-rater reliability by using credentialed

evaluators Using rubrics to determine ratings Utilizing student growth in strategic compensation models

WHAT DOES “PHASED-IN” MEAN?

2012-2013 EVALUATION FRAMEWORK FOR OHIO TIF

Page 13: EVALUATIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH Ohio TIF and OTES

How does the OTES implementation impact personnel decisions in 2012-2013? All local policies regarding personnel decisions

stand for 2012-2013 Per House Bill 153, districts to not need to use

outcomes of evaluations in personnel decisions until 2013-2014

PERSONNEL POLICIES

Page 14: EVALUATIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH Ohio TIF and OTES

How will student growth be used in evaluations in 2012-2013? Student growth will only be used as part of district

strategic compensation award models Student growth is not required to be part of the

evaluation, rating or personnel decisions in 2012-2013

This phased-in approach provides additional time to explore value-added and other student growth metrics
