Book Study -- Enhancing Professional Practice: The Framework for Teaching

The Cheongna Dalton School admin team is in the process of changing our teacher evaluation system. As part of this work, we have committed to having a book study as a group to discuss and add to our knowledge. Enhancing Professional Practice: A Framework for Teaching by Charlotte Danielson has been around for several years and is a good place for us to begin our process. Specific goals we are hoping to achieve:

1. Developing a common language around educator evaluation and growth.
2. Finding a more consistent way to conduct evaluation with a focus on professional growth.
3. Improving our knowledge as a team.

Move moved through the beginning chapters of the book pretty quickly, but now that we are in the section that describes in detail each domain and the type of evidence that could be gathered, we have slowed do to really think through each section. 

I've read the book in the past, but I'm enjoying rereading it as a group to discuss what we are learning and choices that we need to make to have this work for CDS.
