Delaware

Overarching Goal:

• Ensure aspiring educators are day one

ready, particularly for our students who

need them the most.

3/12

DE Strategies

Ensure novice educators are day one ready- Require Performance Assessment to demonstrate “readiness

to teach”

- Strengthen/expand year-long residencies

Use data to determine program effectiveness- Use data to differentiate programs by performance level, with

clear consequences for those programs not meeting Delawarestandards or performance expectations and opportunities torecognize programs with exemplary performance.

Seed Innovation

- Use resources for innovation grants to strengthen K-12/EPPpartnerships, improve clinical practice, etc.

Six domains

Six domains represent the core

areas in which programs are

evaluated

Each is worth a

different number

of total points

Programs can earn various

percentages of available

points based on performance

on each metric


7/12

Scorecards evaluate performance on fourteen metrics across

six domains worth 85 points total (100 in future years)

Perceptions

Candidate profile andaptitude are given weight

given what research tells us

about long-term effects

DDOE places weight on if

and where educators enter

the Delaware schoolhouse

and for how long they stay

Most weight is attributable to

how educators do in the

classroom

One domain is not scored this

year (but will account for 15

points in future years)
