Sexting
Sexting among teens has become a widespread problem, with 20% admitting to participating and 1/3 sending or receiving nude photos via text messages.

Dr. Voltz presentation on Student Growth in Illinois for school accountability and teacher and principal evaluation purposes.
Technology in education
This document summarizes a presentation about using technology to disrupt traditional instructional methods.

IASB Student Growth Presentation
This document discusses student growth and teacher evaluations in Illinois. It explains that in 2010, Illinois passed a law called PERA that changed how teachers and principals are evaluated to include student growth as a significant factor. School districts must decide how they will measure student growth, including what types of assessments to use. They must also determine how much student growth will count towards teacher evaluations. The document provides recommendations and issues for districts to consider to ensure student growth is properly assessed and incorporated into teacher evaluations.

Coaching as part of teacher evaluation process v2.0
This document outlines Dr. Richard Voltz's protocol for teacher supervision and evaluation using the Danielson Model. The objectives are to collect and analyze data related to teaching domains, and use coaching strategies to improve instruction. The protocol involves 6 steps: 1) focusing observations on relevant domains; 2) gaining teacher buy-in; 3) changing the evaluation focus to student learning; 4) increasing observations; 5) emphasizing reflection; and 6) knowing when to take on coaching, mentoring, or directive roles. Key aspects include involving teachers, focusing on improvement not ratings, observing students more than teachers, and using reflective conversations after observations to set goals. The goal is to improve teaching through meaningful evaluation processes.
What are SLO's
This document provides information about Student Learning Objectives (SLOs) and their role in teacher evaluations under the Performance Evaluation Reform Act (PERA) in Illinois. It explains that PERA requires teacher evaluations to include both measures of teaching practice and student growth. Districts can choose to measure student growth using SLOs, which are academic goals that teachers set for their students at the start of a course. The document outlines the SLO process and requirements, such as selecting appropriate assessments and setting growth expectations. It also addresses common questions about implementing SLOs and using them for teacher evaluations.
Getting Serious About Teacher Evaluation
This document discusses Illinois' Performance Evaluation Reform Act (PERA) which established new teacher and principal evaluation systems to improve student achievement. It summarizes the key aspects of PERA including: the two-part evaluation system consisting of ratings for teacher practice and student growth; recommended evaluation frameworks and approaches to measuring student growth; legal requirements for evaluation frequency and types of assessments used to measure student growth. It also provides recommendations from Dr. Richard Voltz on effective implementation of teacher evaluations, including increasing observation frequency, emphasizing reflection, and ensuring evaluations focus on improvement rather than ratings.
PERA & SB 7 Principal Work
This document discusses 6 key issues that school administrators will face regarding teacher evaluations under PERA and SB7:
1. Collecting bargaining implications and determining reduction in force lists based on teacher performance ratings and seniority rather than just seniority.
2. Using student growth measures, which have many challenges and pitfalls unless implemented carefully through student learning objectives.
3. Determining how many teachers will be rated "Excellent" given the increased rigor of evaluations.

ECRA local growth model
Value-added growth models are statistical models that quantify student academic growth and can be used for various purposes like setting individual student growth targets, incorporating student achievement in teacher evaluations, and documenting returns on investment for programs. The models project what a student's achievement would likely be based on prior performance and compares it to actual achievement to determine value-added impact. Growth percentiles express differences between projections and actuals as percentiles to identify at-risk students and examine teacher/program effectiveness. Multiple historical years of student achievement data are used to develop the models.
