  1. MET Video Capture: Year Two

    DISTRICT X
  2. Welcome Back!! Today’s Agenda: The Purpose of Video Captures Accomplishments from Year 1 Lessons Learned Looking to Year 2 of Video Capture Improvements Requirements, Goals & Timeline for Video Capture Best Practices: Management, Capture & Quality Video Review Process Orientation to New Capture Software and Dashboards Teacher Training Incentives! Technical Support Next Steps for Launching Capture!
  3. The Purpose of Video Capture The lessons captured during the school year will be rated using five teacher observation rubrics developed by nationally-recognized researchers. These scores, in combination with other data from the study, will determine whether these rubrics are effective measures of teaching. The standards being tested: The Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) The Framework for Teaching (FFT) The Mathematical Quality of Instruction (MQI) The Protocol for Language Arts Teacher Observations (PLATO) The Quality of Science Teaching Assessment (QST) National Board for Professional Teaching Standards National Math & Science Institute (NMSI)
  4. Confidentiality Agreement NO ONE FROM YOUR DISTRICT WILL EVER SEE THESE VIDEOS Only Teachscape and the researchers will have access to the videos Teachscape-> will have access to raw data = teacher information with videos Researchers -> will only have access to anonymous videos. Educational Testing Services (ETS) is managing over 200 raters who will score all videos between Nov 2010 to July 2011.
  5. Accomplishments- X% of capture goal! HUGE accomplishments in Year 1- THANK YOU! Many lessons learned – will inform Year 2 This year we will benefit from: More time More experience Major Teachscape improvements
  6. What We Learned What worked: Great SPC recruitment!- Quick, Enthusiastic and Flexible (AGAIN- THANK YOU!) Despite some glitches, we successfully met our capture goals Teachscape Help Desk and Trainers were supportive and responsive What didn’t work: Reported by you! Not enough time SPC role wasn’t clear Video review process Capture software was a bit “wonky” Dashboard inconsistencies Teachers were never trained directly by Teachscape Big Lesson Learned - we had good people but need better tools & processes
  7. Improvements in Year 2 Now we know what is required of SPCs to perform successful video capture: Scheduling with teachers Rig set-up & captures Uploading videos Re-capturing when necessary Today we will share some best-practices that will improve EFFICIENCYandincreaseFUN We have the more time so we can PACE captures to avoid last minute captures We also know how to capture, so this year we can focus on improving QUALITY of captures
  8. Teachscape Improvements Major Areas of Improvement – to be covered in detail today! New video review process – more timely and supportive New video capture software- easier to use New SPC and teacher dashboards- more information Teacher training materials – now you can address questions New and improved training website- no login necessary OUR GOALS: EFFICIENCY, FUN, PACE & QUALITY
  9. Year 2 Capture Requirements All teacher participants are required to submit VALID captures - Invalid captures will have to be redone Single-subject teachers = 4 valid captures Self contained teachers= 8 valid captures (4/subject) 2 focal topics per subject required (same topics as last year) One capture/teacher is required to occur after March 1st. Teachers are required to enter two reflections (Self-contained teachers need to complete one per subject area). Teachers have to SUBMIT all captures, even for the ones they do not add commentary on. This is how the data is submitted for the study.
  10. Year 2 Capture Goals Capture Goal = 100% (# for X DISTRICT) Meet all capture milestones: Pacing Captures Video Quality = Rejection Rate at or below 4% Teacher submits all four valid captures/subject – only two reflections required.
  11. Year 2 Timeline: Pacing Video Capture Remember to PACE, its not a race... Lets use the extra time to our advantage: Spread out captures to reduce stress on SPC Allow teachers to use captures for their own personal development
  12. Best Practices – Always Improving Scheduling Captures: SPCs from year 1 across all six districts had one thing in common related to achieving captures on time They would schedule their teachers for the entire project before launching capture. Teachscape Scheduling Tool – in response to this feedback, we have created a very simple document to help SPCs schedule captures for the entire school year. Use this tool after meeting with your teachers (between now and capture launch) Create a process that works for YOU and your teachers. Teachscape wants to continue developing best practices and tools to better support YOU. Help us create a Community of Practice – share best practices with us and we will make them available to SPCs across all six districts!
  13. Additional Best Practices Schedule focal topics first- get them out of the way Timing - leave plenty of time for set-up and break-down Upload daily- quicker response from Teachscape about quality and/or issues Follow best practices – always being updated by Teachscape SPC circa 1928 www.teachscape.com/metvideo
  14. Your Turn…. What was your most successful strategy to completing captures in year 1? Small Group Discussion
  15. Video Quality Improve QUALITY ReduceRejections When we reduce rejections, we eliminate stress AND produce more powerful data for the study. Today we will… Look at why captures were rejected Identify best practices to ensure and improve QUALITY captures Understand the video review process – it can help reduce rejections too
  16. Year 1: Capture Metrics: Rejections MOST WANTED LIST No Audio – we couldn’t hear anything 294 captures Capture Length- capture was less than 20 minutes 232 captures Calibration/Focus- we couldn’t see what was going on in the lesson 88 captures Rig Placement- we couldn’t see what was going on in the lesson 83 captures
  17. Video Capture: Increasing Quality S.L.A.P. = That Capture Was Gooood! Settings Take 5-10 minutes to readjust set-up, calibration, focus Be able to read the writing on the board Laptop Do not, under any circumstances, close the lid; not even a little bit Make sure the power supply is plugged in Audio Check your batteries Look for the audio meters Placement Get the best seat in the house (tallest student in room, 6-10 ft from board, etc.) Don’t be afraid to change placement of the rig set up for different class set-ups
  18. Video Capture: Rig Placement #1 Desk Arrangement: Rows
  19. Video Capture: Rig Placement #2 Desk Arrangement: Small Groups
  20. Your Turn.. What were some difficult classroom set-ups to capture? What were some good solutions you found to capture different classroom set-ups? Small Group Discussion
  21. Video Review: Decrease Rejections Clear and Timely Video Review No more LATE rejections 5 business days for capture feedback AFTER UPLOAD Video Review Team watching every capture Each Rejected capture reviewed at least twice We will offer personalized support with every rejection notice Video Review Process: Teachscape YOU SPC/ DPC Initial video review Flag Review Manager 2ndreview Reject TDSC Upload Teacher Accept
  22. Artifacts Classroom artifacts are REQUIRED Artifacts: Worksheets Book covers Boards Room walls Example of an Artifact
  23. Video Review: Notifications Our goal is to get you constructive feedback on captures in a timely manner. Video Rejected -> notice sent to TDSC, not to you Your TDSC ( NAME) will reach out to you directly and inform you about which capture was rejected and WHY. We will always offer to come visit you and help you through in-person training. Video Status and Rejection detail to be listed on the online dashboards immediately after its is reviewed and rejected by Teachscape Our Goal- to prevent you from making the same mistake twice
