Danielson Quiz

1. Ms. A couldn’t verify whether a certain student was absent a few weeks ago.

2. Ms. C had her class watch a video of the “I Have a Dream” speech, then guided them through questions that were factual, interpretive, and analytical in nature.

3. Students in Mr. H’s class are puzzled after he explains “slope” in Algebra. Instead of assigning problems like he had planned, Mr. H tried a different approach in clarifying the content.

4. Mr. B designed a rubric for student projects. It identified key elements of a good project and three levels of performance for each element.

5. Ms. W sends home newsletters with her elementary students that explain what the students will learn this week.

6. The students in Ms. L’s class begin work on a warm-up that is written on the board as soon as they walk in and sit down.

Identify the component that each prompt addresses

Each of the 12 Components has a rubric of clear expectations

What is engagement?Students who are engaged

exhibit three characteristics:

1) They are attracted to their work2) They persist in their work despite

challenges and obstacles3) They take visible delight in

accomplishing their work

*Engagement is NOT just keeping busy.

(Philip Schlechty, 1994)
