Trust Based Observations

With current methods of teacher evaluations not improving teaching and learning it's time for a change. With a frightening teacher shortage looming, we need teachers to stay and we need to really improve teaching and learning we have to transform the way we observe and evaluate teachers. Trust-Based Observations provides that transformative change. You see, we understand that first and foremost we're in a people business. And as such, we have to create conditions most conducive to learning. We do that by using the observation process to:

1. Build meaningful differentiated trusting relationships with each teacher;
2. Develop safe spaces where empowered teachers embrace taking risks to grow practice because they know they're supported;
3. Create schoolwide cultures of trust where, as Hattie describes Trust-Based Observations, "Demonstrating collective teacher efficacy in action" is the norm.

The result: improved teaching and learning and workplaces where teachers want to stay! Head to www.trustbased.com
