Performance Evaluation Reform Act (PERA) Student Growth No Stakes Pilot for CTE Teachers PRESENTED BY: JEN NEWENDYKE, SYSTEM DIRECTOR, EFE #220, ELIZABETH CHAMBERS, HEALTH OCCUPATIONS COORDINATOR/INSTRUCTOR & CRAIG DANEKAS, COMPUTER INFORMATION SYSTEMS INSTRUCTOR
Inquiry Understanding of PERA? Level of district implementation? Level of individual implementation? Position on change curve, denial, anger, acceptance?
WHY? January 2010: Illinois General Assembly passed Performance Evaluation Reform Act (PERA), signed by Governor Quinn June 2011: Education Reform bill as a result of PERA, Senate bill 7, signed by Governor Quinn May 2012: ISBE administrative rules Part 50 take effect, http://www.isbe.net/rules/archive/pdfs/50ARK.pdf As a result, changed evaluation ratings from 3 to 4 ratings, adopted Danielson model, implemented pilot to incorporate students growth 2015-2016 school year
DISCLAIMER We do not have all the answers We do not claim to have everything right Our process is a result of numerous trainings and resources through Kids at the Core, ROE #8, professional development conferences, such as Connections Conference, self study of PERA and Senate Bill 7, and information provided by Performance Evaluation Advisory Council (PEAC) We are giving an overview, some information on major steps along the way, but not all the detail
Instructional Design Process Identify industry/content standards for CTE area Example: Illinois Occupational Skills Standards, Illinois Learning Standards, National Standards for FACS Ed Prioritize standards given length of class, age of student, course objective Deconstruct standards using Unwrapping Standards Template as adapted from Kids at the Core Link standards to units of instruction Develop learning goal based on essential skills unwrapped from the standards, use Directions for Establishing a Learning Goal as adapted for ROE#8 PD Review currently used assessments, modify to suit goals in a pre-assessment, mid point check, and post assessment Determine level of cognitive demand and link to standard for all assessment questions, use Assessment Question/Task Standard Alignment with Complexity Analysis as modified from Kids at the Core and ROE#8 PD resources. Use Checklist for Type 3 Assessment Approval as a guide for quality & consistency

Health Occupations Instructional Design Process Example Big Idea Content Standards Assessments Student Data Growth Objectives Overall Reflection Occupational Health Standards Link: http://www.isbe.net/career/pdf/health_occupations_guide.pdf IDPH CNA Health Occupations Standards: http://www.nurseaidetesting.com/wp- content/uploads/2013/01/BNATP-Model-Program-2013.pdf
Informal Joint Committee Decisions What SLO Template? How will baseline data be collected? Who approves teacher SLO s? How many SLO s (2 required)? What is interval of instruction? How are teachers to align assessments with standards, complexity? Determine timelines for steps of SLO process. How will target population be defined? What measurement model? What type of assessments will be used? What does mid-point review look like? Can a growth goal be changed at mid-point check?
SLO Framework & Rating Sheets as adapted from ROE#8 resources SLO Framework includes all sign off steps SLO scoring thresholds were agreed upon by informal joint committee and then formal joint committee, see Determining Final Student Growth Rating Final Summative Rating chart developed back on examples and agreed upon by informal joint and then formal joint committee, see Determining Final Summative Rating
Informing Students Teachers share how they approached process with students
