Gathering Evidence During Observations and Conferencing Using the Danielson Model
November 3, 2026, 8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
Who should take this course: AA #1801 is for evaluators who already hold the teacher evaluator designation on their PEL and need to complete their teacher evaluator retraining requirements. Teacher evaluators must complete two retraining courses during each five-year license renewal cycle. This requirement begins with the cycle after the one in which the initial evaluator designation was earned.
About the training: Participants learn practical skills and strategies for using Charlotte Danielson's Framework for Teaching in summative evaluation. At the end of the session, participants complete an Application and Dissemination Plan, written in complete sentences, to finish the academy.
