Evaluation Process

Inter-Rater Reliability

Reliability

refers to the consistency of the entire evaluation process.

Validity

means that the process is measuring what it was intended to measure.

KSDE Expectation

All school district evaluators attend professional learning activities that address the issue of reliability relative to using the KEEP Rubrics.

The same expectations apply to districts using an evaluation system other than KEEP.

What is Coming? What Needs to be Prepared for Next Year??

• • • • Discussions about Goal setting and whether to set building or district Goals through the evaluation process Discussions about what you would like to work better in the KEEP Repository Discussions about Measures that are currently used and any Measures that will be used in the future Discussions about adding Student Growth Measures to the Evaluation Process for next year

Next Year 2014-2015

Multiple Measures



Must include state assessments as expected



Include assessment measures currently in use in your district



Shared credit/responsibility for student growth



Time for student growth 1-4 years

Must meet all three student growth measures to be considered highly effective.

Must meet at least two student growth measures to be considered effective. Can only be considered developing if meeting only one student growth measure Can only be rated one performance level higher than the lowest summary rating. When all summary ratings are the same, that rating becomes the performance level.

Multiple Measures and Significance Summary

Teachers and Leaders evaluations include multiple measures as evidence • Kansas is defining “significance” as demonstrating student growth using MORE than one measure • Must consider state assessments • May include assessment measures currently in use in your district • Validity of the Measure must be pre determined for any appropriate measure • Locally determine credit/responsibility for student growth • Time for student growth 1-4 years
