Computing a Composite Score of Teacher Effectiveness Sample Clauses

Computing a Composite Score of Teacher Effectiveness. The “District” and “WHEA” agreed to use the Teacher Practice Rubric with a 1-­‐4 scale, with all teaching standards weighed equally. However, a minimum of 31 points must be attributed to observations by a trained evaluator in person. Every teacher must be annually assessed on each of the seven New York Teaching Standards, but not necessarily on all of the elements of each Standard. After gathering evidence, the trained evaluator writing the summative evaluation scores each performance indicator, adds the highest scores, and divides the total score by the number of indicators. This becomes the Total Average Rubric Score (See Appendix I, pg. 78-­‐79). Next, the individual’s Total Average Rubric Score is calculated using the conversion chart listed in Appendix I (pg. 77) to identify in which scoring range this sub-­‐component composite score falls into. Next, the trained evaluator acquires the score of the student growth measure sub-­‐component and the locally selected measure of student achievement sub-­‐component (Appendix J, pg. 81). Finally, the trained evaluator adds the three subcomponents as indicated in Appendix J (pg. 80) to determine a final effectiveness rating. Overall Effectiveness Rating Ineffective 0-­‐65 points Developing 65-­‐74 points Effective 75-­‐90 points Highly Effective 91-­‐100

Computing a Composite Score of Teacher Effectiveness. The "District" and "XXXX'' agreed to use the Teacher Practice Rubric with a 1-4 scale, with all teaching standards weighed equally. Observations must be attributed to observations by a trained evaluator in person. Every teacher must be annually assessed on each of the seven New York Teaching Standards, but not necessarily on all of the elements of each Standard. After gathering evidence, the trained evaluator writing the summative evaluation scores each performance indicator, adds the highest scores, and divides the total score by the number of indicators. This becomes the Total Average Rubric Score. 80% of the teachers evaluation will be from the principal or supervisor’s observation and 20% of the rating will be from the independent evaluator’s observation. (See Appendix J). Next, the individual's Total Average Rubric Score is calculated using the conversion chart listed in Appendix J to identify in which scoring range the teacher observation category falls into. Next, the trained evaluator acquires the score of the student performance measure (Appendix J). Finally, the trained evaluator applies the final category ratings to the matrix to determine the final effectiveness rating.
