law as well as the needs of administrators,

Option B and C
• Currently, we do not know who can receive
Option B and C.
• We do not have the Summative Ratings at this
time.
• Time to think about it!
• We hope to have all Student Growth results in
and applied to Summative ratings in
September.
Pause
• Take a moment to reflect on the differences
between Option B and Option C.
• What are the similarities? Differences?
• Given the Option for either one, would you
take it, or not?
Individual Professional
Development Plan
• Request by teachers and administrators serving on
the Oversight Committee and IPDP sub committee to
continue to clarify the rubric and provide training
that will help with consistency across the district
• Changes have been made to the rubric
• Training to be provided during school-based inservice
• Goal of the training
• Understanding of the changes
• Explain the IPDP process
• Provide opportunities for rating collaboration
IPDP FYI
• SB1664 one word “Require” to “May”
• However
– Race to the Top agreement states that the IPDP will be a
metric in our “multi-metric system”
– State Board of Education Protocol Standards for
Professional Development include IPDP requirements
• DOEs ultimate goal is to revise policies so that goals
can be achieved in a variety of ways (IPDP or PLC
process, for example)
• IPDPs will still be completed for the 13/14 school
year
FYI: More about SB1664
Classroom teachers
• For the 13/14 School Year, student growth can only be applied
based on students served
• No School VAM for Classroom Teachers for 13/14
• Can Use• Direct Measurements (FCAT, Alg I, FAA, IB, AICE, AP, Dual Enrollment,
Brigance, Industry Certification, SAT 10, PERT)
• Indirect Measurements (FCAT Reading VAM based on students who
took FCAT but not in an FCAT course, i.e. science)
Non-classroom teachers
• Can use School VAM for Student Growth

FYI: 2013 Framework for Teaching
• Intent of each item remains the same
• Provides examples for each component as well as critical
attributes (guidance for observers)
• AIMS will continue to reflect the 2007 version; however, the
2013 version will be used in training to clarify components
and calibrate teacher ratings provided by administrators
• Will not be uploaded to AIMS because Teachscape owns the
digital rights
• All stakeholders are encouraged to download the Framework
and use it as a reference guide
