Please bring

• One copy
of the ENTIRE evaluation or appraisal instrument at your school
if you have one. The entire instrument includes any written
explanation of the evaluation process, timelines, criteria used,
plus all forms used in the process by either the teacher or the
evaluator. These documents will be used as part of a learning
activity and, thus, will be shared with other participants in
your course.
-
•
Any standards or criteria for
teachers used at your school.
-
• A class
set of student papers. These can be from any subject area but
should have a writing focus (e.g., a writing assignment from
English class or writer’s workshop, a written explanation of a
math problem or process, a science journal entry, etc.). These
will be used during our segment on ‘Looking at Student Work.’
-
•
Completed “12 Steps to Linking
Supervision and Evaluation” form.

3.
Teaching a lesson
As part of the course,
prepare a short lesson (10-15 minutes) for a small group
of six course participants. If you are currently teaching, the
lesson should be based on something you currently teach. If you
are not currently teaching, base the lesson on something from
your school’s curriculum. Please be sure to bring any needed
materials with you to the course or choose materials that are
easily available. Copies for a small group can be made at the
course. Please note: Only a few participants will be teaching
their lessons, but all should prepare.

4.
Vignettes
-
In preparation for the small group
sessions in the afternoon please bring a written (one page) case
study or vignette, dealing with a problem or situation you have
confronted during your professional practice. Given the content
of the Instructional Supervision course, you might want to
choose a vignette that has to do with a difficult teacher or an
experience with teacher evaluation, if possible.

We look forward to seeing you
this summer!
