NTPS Model Development • NTPS is one of nine pilot sites in the state: this is all in a “first draft” phase • Our model has been influenced by the work of Charlotte Danielson, Kim Marshall, and Robert Marzano as well as other evaluation systems currently in use • We value this work because… • The work itself instigates meaningful professional growth for all involved • We see the potential for this project to have a powerful effect on teaching and learning in this state for many years to come
NTPS Process • Step 1: Decide on a Rating Scale • 6696 requires a 4 Tier system • We reviewed other 4 Tier evaluation and assessment models and agreed to the following… Level 4: Distinguished Level 3: Proficient / Effective Level 2: Emerging / Needs Improvement Level 1: Does Not Meet Expectations
NTPS Process • Step 2: Create and Sort Elements for Each Criteria • Each criteria assigned to a subcommittee and broken down into 5-9 elements (AKA sub-criteria or components) • Common language / Glossary • Duplication analysis • After revision we currently have 2-3 unique elements per criteria
NTPS Process • Step 3: Create the Performance Levels • Began by composing our summative statements for each performance level (AKA the 10,000 foot view) • Wrote Level 3 (Proficient/Effective) first • Completed the writing and revision process for our summative statement of performance level 3 before moving on to level 1,2,4 • Followed the same procedure to create the first draft of the rubric for our model
NTPS Process • Next Steps • Continue revision and development of the rubric for our model based on work with the Steering Committee/other Pilot sites • Investigate and select Evidence and Measures • Increase our engagement with Community and Parent stakeholders • Evaluator and Evaluatee selection / training
