Editor's Notes
The Alabama Continuum for Teacher Development is being used for the Alabama Mentoring Program. The state adopted AQTS and this document serve as the core of our evaluation process.
The EDUCATEAlabama Continuum is a slightly altered version of the Continuum. This document will serve as the self-assessment for educators. The main difference is that it doesn’t include pre-service/beginning. Numbering is slightly different under standards with multiple parts. The expectations for each level of performance are noted for each indicator. Notice there is not a level of performance for each standard. This is the document that will be used to determine levels of performance for each indicator at the end of the evaluation process. The standards level will be holistic. The expectation is that there will be a mix of levels for each teacher in all areas. We shouldn’t expect that any teacher would demonstrate all integrating or innovating. We also shouldn’t expect that a seasoned teacher would always be at a different level of performance than a novice teacher. Every teacher will be different. This is differentiated evaluation and it will identify strengths and areas of focus. During PEPE Training there were people that thought the teacher on the video clip was exceptional and then others that thought she was mediocre. The continuum will retool evaluators and teachers on expectations and give them a continuum to help them grow.
Complete the document with your group on the assigned standard and share. Sometimes we don’t know what we don’t know. This process will be a retooling for all administrators and educators.
