Collaboration around a Common Need
Fall 2012School Improvement Consortium meetings at ESC of Lake Erie West
“If we all need to do this work, then let’s explore how we could do it
together”….but we don’t want our teachers to be out of their classrooms any more than they already
are!

Functionality - Permission levels? Reporting? Accommodate a high number of users? IT setup, speed, performance, security, privacy?
Investment - Direct and Indirect Costs? Total Cost of Ownership (i.e., IT support, scaling up/training users, involvement and/or knowledge levels)

“All SLOs should be broad enough to represent the
most important learning or overarching skills, but
narrow enough to be measured”
-A Guide to Using Student Learning Objectives as a Locally-Determined Measure of Student Growth, Ohio Department of
Education, 2012
Project Overview- PD Content

Two critical questions for every teacher team
Which key concepts and important skills should we focus on for SLOs?
What assessments will measure these concepts and skills?
What are SLO Worthy Concepts and Skills?

Big Ideas
What are SLO Worthy Concepts and Skills?
Resist the temptation to
just get it done
Decide on what big ideas
first THEN
Go looking for the best ways
to assess
22
SLO Worthy—Worksheet to guide conversations
Big Ideas Activity-
1. Individually:▫Post-its with key concepts and important skills for each subject area/grade level
2. As a grade level:▫ Categorize your key concepts and
impt skills ▫ Prioritize the categories▫ On Chart paper, display the big
ideas that you are going to focus on as a grade level/subject area

Mr. Hinton is a second grade music teacher.• The curriculum covers the 2012 Visual Arts
standards.• By the end of the course, students should be able to
play, sing, and move to music to demonstrate how it communicates meaning: create music; listen to and study various forms of music; and form and express opinions about music.
• An available 30-question assessment has 10 multiple-choice questions focused on music in various cultures and 20 multiple-choice questions about music appreciation.
Is this assessment sufficiently aligned with the content and skills of the course?
Alignment Scenario

content standards.
Does this assessment have enough stretch?
