March 9 and March 18, 2021 (9 a.m. - 11 a.m.)

The RESC Alliance has updated this professional learning, increasing the focus on high-impact components of the process. The interactive virtual session concentrates on the evaluator’s capacity to observe and analyze teacher performance through the lens of the CT Common Core of Teaching (CCT) and to provide supportive, high quality feedback to teachers. Participants will learn how to use a feedback cycle to collect evidence, analyze the connection to CCT indicators, and help teachers plan for appropriate instructional improvements. They will have opportunities to apply their learning and receive personalized feedback to improve in the effective evaluation of teachers. This professional learning opportunity is intended for new administrators that evaluate teachers or those who want to refresh their skills with observation and providing feedback.

This virtual training includes learning over the course of: 

• Asynchronous learning tasks that can be completed at an educator’s own pace prior to each synchronous (live) session; and 

• Two 2-hour synchronous (live) learning sessions
