  1. Supporting Teachers and Administrators in the SLG Goal Setting Process ESEA Odyssey August 2014

  2. Outcomes for Today • Understand the components of and changes to Oregon’s Evaluation and Support System • Deeper examination of targeted components of the SLG goal setting process • Content, Assessment, Context, Baseline Data

  3. Group Norms • Fully present • Share your expertise • Equity of voice • Active listening • Respect the current speaker – no side conversations • Safety to share different opinions and perspectives • Respectful use of technology

  4. Required System Components • Based on standards of professional practice • Differentiated Performance Levels (4) • Multiple Measures of Evidence • Professional Practice, Professional Responsibilities, Student Learning and Growth • Observations, artifacts of practice, student results

  5. Required System Components • Professional Growth Cycle • Self-Reflection • Goal Setting • Observation/ Collection of Evidence • Formative Assessment/ Evaluation • Summative Evaluation • The Oregon Matrix • Aligned Professional Learning

  6. Where do I fit? • What is your role in your district’s evaluation and support system? • Individual think time • Table talk • Share out

  7. Purpose of SLG Goals • Collaborative conversations • Recognition for what you are doing well • Educators and students get the support they need in real time

  8. Revisions to SLG Goal Guidance • Rationale added as a component to the template • *Category 3 removed • State checklist and scoring rubric *Pending USED approval of Oregon’s waiver

  9. Clarifications • Who are SLG goals set for? • *What kinds of Assessments can be used? • What is the scope of SLG goals? • What is the difference between Achievement and Growth? • Who has to set SLG goals? *Pending USED approval of Oregon’s waiver

  10. Evaluation Flow Chart • Tool developed to help districts determine who must be evaluated under SB 290 requirements • Developed by the Educator Effectiveness Work Group • Series of questions to determine who meets the requirements

  11. Filter 1: Licensure No Yes Continue to next filter Evaluation process to be determined by the district

  12. Filter 2: Administrator Test • Screen shot No Yes Continue to next filter Evaluate under requirements of SB 290

  13. Filter 3: Teacher Test

  14. Definition of “Instructor*” Those individuals who meet the definition used in ORS 342.121 “Instruction includes direction of learning in class, in small groups, in individual situations, in the library and in guidance and counseling, but does not include the provision of related services, as defined in ORS 343.035(15), to a child identified as a child with a disability pursuant to ORS 343.146 when provided in accordance with ORS 343.041-343.065 and 343.221.” Instruction does include provision of specially designed instruction (special education) provided in accordance with 343.035(18).

  15. What about everyone else? • Districts determine how the remaining staff will be evaluated

  16. Reminder! • While the flowchart outlines who is required by SB 290 to set Student Learning and Growth Goals, districts may choose to include additional staff in this process

  17. SLG Goal Triangle • Using the information provided in the flowchart, do you think you need to set SLG Goals? • YES – Go to the front of the room • NO – Go to the back right corner • STILL NOT SURE – Go to the back left corner • Explain your reasoning to someone in your group

  18. SLG Goal Setting Process • 8 required components • Content • Assessment • Context • Baseline Data • Target(s) • Rationale • Instructional Strategies • Professional Support

  19. Digging Deeper into the Process Content: • Based on the relevant content and skills students should know or be able to do at the end of the course /class, a clear statement of a specific area of focus is selected. These should be based on specific state or national standards. A statement such as “CCSS in Math” is not specific enough.

  20. Content Example: HS Chemistry • Describe the composition, structure, and properties of matter, draw conclusions about the interactions and conservation of matter and energy, and explain why matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed in a given system and/or reaction. • Related Oregon Science standards: • H.2.P1, H.2. P2, H.2.P3 Knowledge = YELLOW Skills = BLUE Standards = PINK

  21. Highlighted Content • describe the composition, structure, and properties of matter, draw conclusions about the interactions and conservation of matter and energy, and explain why matter and energy can neither be created nor destroyed in a given system and/or reaction. • Related Oregon Science standards: • H.2.P1, H.2. P2, H.2.P3

  22. Reflecting on Content Component • Think about the content you wrote in your goal • Do you still think it is appropriate? • Why or why not? • Do you need to narrow the focus? • Share your reflections with someone at your table

  23. Digging Deeper into the Process Assessment: • Describes how student learning and growth will be measured. In Oregon, two categories of assessments are used for SLG goals. Assessments must be aligned to state or national standards and meet state criteria. • Assessment criteria developed by ODE to assist districts in developing/vetting assessments • www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=512

  24. Assessment Example: HS Chemistry I will re-administer the Chemical Concepts Inventory which is a multiple choice test, and using the Oregon Scientific Inquiry Scoring Guide, I will evaluate student performance on the Hydrated Salt Performance Task. Students develop procedures for an investigation and plan for recording and organizing observations and data. It requires students to draw upon their understanding of the crystalline structure of ionic salt, the application of conservation of matter to calculate the coefficient of H2O in the empirical formula of the hydrated salt, and making conclusions consistent with the use of chemical equations to predict quantitatively the molar masses of reactants and products in 3 chemical reactions.

  25. Assessment Example: Answers How is learning measured? Multiple choice test for content Performance task for application Which categories do the assessments fall under? CCI– Category 2 Performance Task – Category 2 Are the assessments aligned with standards and do they meet state criteria? CCI: Requires more investigation Performance Task: YES – uses state scoring guide

  26. Reflecting on Assessment Component • Think about the assessment you used in your goal • Do you still think it is appropriate? • Why or why not? • What would you change? • Share reflections with someone at your table • How can you use the assessment you chose to measure the growth in the content you identified?

  27. Digging Deeper into the Process Context: Description of the demographics and learning needs of all students in the class/course. Includes as relevant: number of students and their gender, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, attendance, and any students with diverse learning needs (EL, TAG, IEP, 504 plans). For those educators who do not meet with students on a regular basis, including contact time provides additional context for the goals developed.

  28. Context Example: MS Math (Admin) • 60% of students enrolled in ABC Middle School receive free or reduced lunch. As the result of our school’s block scheduling, all students participate in four 70 minute math periods per week. 82 students, or approximately 14%, are students with disabilities who have an IEP but are not eligible to take the extended assessment. 52 students are boys; 30 students are girls. 50% (41) of the students have IEP goals in math.

  29. Reflecting on Context Component • Think about the context in the goal you brought • What context(s) did you include to address all the learning needs of your students? • How did you use context to set targets and select strategies? • What would you do differently? • Share your reflections with someone at your table

  30. Digging Deeper into the Process Baseline Data: Provides information about the students’ current performance at the start of course/class. It is generally the most recent data available and can include the prior year’s assessment scores or grades, results from a beginning of the year benchmark assessment, a pre-test, or other evidence of student learning. Determine students’ strengths and areas of weakness that inform the goal.

  31. Baseline Data Example: MS Math Our original set of data included an analysis of OAKS results from the previous year which revealed a 48% gap in performance between students who received SPED services in Math and those whodidn’t. Only 31% of students with IEPs in math scored at or above proficiency. We have analyzed their results and found three distinct tiers of performance. • Group 1: 31% of students met or exceeded • Group 2: 44% of students nearly met • Group 3: 25% of students did not meet

  32. Reflecting on Baseline Data • Share the baseline data in the goal you brought • What are the strengths/limitations of the baseline data you collected? • To what extent would the baseline data you collected allow you to tier your targets? • How will context inform your tiers? How won’t it? • Share your reflections with someone at your table

  33. Wrap-Up • Use an index card from your table to write down: • Two new learnings or “a-has” you had as a result of today’s professional learning • One question you still have regarding the SLG goal setting process
