Making sense of this work!Columbia

I consistently listen to, borrow ideas from and work with others to improve my practice. During this work I have relied heavily on the following people:

Ed Tech – Jacki Sloan to make systems talk to each other.

DOSA Team – Sharing great ideas Garrett Rosa – His crazy Google mind! Visits to other schools/Talks & Walks with peers DoI & Laurie Marcellin, Yvonne Davis, etc… Myla Sheppard – Amazing work over the last two years. My ad team (AP and designee) and teachers My Administrative Assistant – Mitzi Torres

At Columbia, we have broken the evaluation process into several components:

Rollout Calendar Organization & Access of Work Communications with staff Inter rater reliability commitment Time

TODAY’s Focus – Organization & Access of Work

Columbia has dedicated the monthly faculty meetings solely to developing understanding of the evaluation process.

July – August: Self-Evaluation September: TPLP October: Informal Observation Process November: Formal Observation Process December: Mid-Year Review Process January: Mid-Year Review individual feedback

& TPLP updates February, March, April and May topics: TBD

What needs to be organized & have easy access: Evaluation Components: Self-Assessments,

TPLP’s, Artifacts, Informal and Formal Observations, etc…
