Summary

We know that even modest improvements in teacher effectiveness can lead to impressive gains in student achievement, but what hasn’t been clear is what exactly district leaders should do to encourage and support teachers in practicing the art and science of great teaching.

In this webinar, Robert Marzano explained what it takes to create a teacher supervision and evaluation system that’s more apt to lead to higher student achievement.

Based on his extensive research, Marzano discussed:

• Five school-level conditions that are essential to systematically developing teacher expertise.
• Four domains of teaching practice that provide a focus for instructional improvement.
• Five ways to provide teacher feedback that avoids the pitfalls of a checklist approach.

Going way beyond scripted observation routines and typical value-added measurements of teacher effectiveness, Robert Marzano shared broad principles of effective supervision that apply to all kinds of schools.
