Gathering Feedback for Teaching (MET Project)

Abstract:

This report presents an in-depth discussion of the analytical methods and findings from the Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) project’s analysis of classroom observations. A nontechnical companion report describes implications for policymakers and practitioners. The report shares tests on five different approaches to classroom observations. Each observation instrument is designed to do two things: (1) focus an observer’s attention on specific aspects of teaching practice and (2) establish common evidentiary standards for each level of practice. Ideally, an observation instrument should create a common vocabulary for pursuing a shared vision of effective instruction.
