3 Things We'd Change About Evaluation Season
Summer ends, and the evaluation cycle starts right back up, whether anyone's calibrated, caught up on rubric changes, or ready to walk into a classroom with a clipboard again. The first few observations of the year rarely feel as sharp as the ones from May.
In this conversation, three former educators from our own team each bring one thing they'd change about how evaluation season kicks off.
You'll walk away with:
- Three concrete changes to consider before your next observation cycle starts
- What tends to slip over the summer, and how to catch it before it shows up in your first round of observations
- A look at what's coming next for evaluators, including new tools built to lighten the load
