So… How can we agree
to do “D”?
We Need a New Mental Model…
We are now Evaluated as a School
AYP
We will soon be Evaluated at the Teacher Level
AYPTeacher Evaluation
How can we shift this Conversation from
Evaluation to
Collaboration?
Because here’s What’s coming…
Common Core State Standards
and
Next Generation Assessments
Common Core State Standards
Fewer… Clearer… Higher…
ALL students will Leave high school
Ready for college and career…
Regardless of disability, Language, or subgroup status.
And they….
Have the opportunity to SHOW what they Know and can do
”The CCSS and their assessments will do to teachers what AYP did
to administrators” Bill Daggett
We Need a New Mental Model…
A New Map!

ICLE Reports
95% of principals request follow-up training and support to implement the R/R Framework in their schools
Teachers are typically hard at work during the classroom visitations, but instruction is predominately teacher-
centered and students are passive learners
ICLE Reports
Quad A is traditional instruction and most often measured by
student recital of facts or basic recall
Quad A classrooms are NOT synonymous with poor instruction
A Thought Experiment…
Collaborative Instructional Review
What is the Collaborative Instructional Review?
Can be used to Improve…
Student AchievementTeacher Readiness
Quality/Effectiveness of Instruction Professional Dialogue/Learning
Through…
The Lens of the Rigor and Relevance
Framework
Who’s It For?
Districts/Schools that…
Have foundational knowledge of the Rigor and Relevance Framework
and want to take it to the next level
Want to develop a fair, equitable Teacher Evaluation System
How is it Unique? 80/20 Rule
Person observing instruction will spend 80% of their time in class looking at, and listening to what
students are doing and saying
20% of the time listening to the teacher
Collaborative Instructional Review
The CIR is a highly effective and cost efficient way to help prepare all staff to meet the
challenge of the Common Core State Standards
and the assessments that follow.
