EVALUATIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH
Ohio TIF and OTES
CORE BELIEFS
There is an urgency to ensure all students graduate prepared for college, careers, and future opportunities
A critical link exists between teacher effectiveness and student achievement
Effective educator evaluations are an important part of strengthening the teaching profession and providing professional growth opportunities for all
THE CONTEXT
The world is changing Technology is advancing Low-skill, living-wage jobs are declining Businesses are looking globally for candidates
Education is the linchpin for future economic success For individuals For our country
Students need post-secondary training to open doors to future opportunities
ADAPTING TO A NEW REALITY
Educators are embracing changes to prepare students for the future
This work involves: What teachers teach – Common Core and state
standards How teachers teach – formative instructional practices Evidence of student learning – assessments and data Evidence of teacher effectiveness – teacher
performance and student growth
TEACHER EFFECTIVENESS
Educator effectiveness is single most important classroom factor impacting student achievement
Effective evaluation systems: Set high expectations for teachers and leaders Provide feedback and support for professional
growth Help everyone in the profession, including the best,
continually get better
EVALUATION FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH
Educator evaluation systems should align with local district goals and values
Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) is framework to help districts design evaluation systems for professional growth Aligned to Ohio’s standards for teachers Based 50 percent on measures of teacher
performance, and 50 percent on student growth Provides targeted professional learning opportunities
based on results of evaluation
PIONEERING THROUGH OHIO TIF
Through TIF, districts are designing and implementing evaluation systems that: Support local values and goals Bring out the best in teachers Focus on student outcomes
TIF districts will use the teacher performance side of the OTES framework in 2012-2013 A year ahead of statewide implementation Phased-in approach Opportunity to be creative and test out the system
OTES FRAMEWORK
(OTES Evaluation Framework, Ohio Department of Education)
2011-2012: All Ohio TIF districts (plus 100 other districts statewide) participating in OTES pilot
2012-2013: All Ohio TIF districts begin phased-in implementation of OTES framework Ohio TIF districts must have MOU in place by April 1, 2012
affirming they will implement in 2012-2013—we did this.
2013-2014: All Ohio districts must begin full OTES implementation Ohio districts must adopt or align to OTES framework by
June 1, 2013 through local board policy
CURRENT STATE OF THE WORK
CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
Challenges Capacity for
implementation Fairness in
evaluations for different types of educators
Reliability and accuracy of data
Opportunities 2012-2013 phase-in,
transition year Be innovative and
creative Provide feedback to
inform statewide implementation
USDOE has provided flexibility for Ohio TIF districts around OTES implementation
In 2012-2013, TIF districts must implement teacher performance components: Two 30-minute observations and walkthroughs for all
teachers Ensuring inter-rater reliability by using credentialed
evaluators Using rubrics to determine ratings Utilizing student growth in strategic compensation models
WHAT DOES “PHASED-IN” MEAN?
2012-2013 EVALUATION FRAMEWORK FOR OHIO TIF
How does the OTES implementation impact personnel decisions in 2012-2013? All local policies regarding personnel decisions
stand for 2012-2013 Per House Bill 153, districts to not need to use
outcomes of evaluations in personnel decisions until 2013-2014
PERSONNEL POLICIES
How will student growth be used in evaluations in 2012-2013? Student growth will only be used as part of district
strategic compensation award models Student growth is not required to be part of the
evaluation, rating or personnel decisions in 2012-2013
This phased-in approach provides additional time to explore value-added and other student growth metrics
STUDENT GROWTH
STUDENT GROWTH
Ohio TIF districts are receiving support from ODE and BFK to implement OTES in 2012-2013
Through participating in this year’s pilot, Ohio TIF districts are informing state policy and guidance on implementation
THE WORK AHEAD
EVALUATIONS IN OUR DISTRICT
Circleville’s work to implement OTES Collaborative team – GAT Kevin Fox and three EMS teachers
participated in 2011-2012 pilot – very positive feedback – they actually liked it!
Student growth is embedded throughout our TIF award model Goal #1—Improving P.I. Scores Goal #2—Student Learning Objectives (SLO) Goal #3—TBTs and Value-Added/Opt-In Data

The work around evaluations is challenging work, but worthwhile
