This two-day overview of the UW/CEL Instructional Framework and how it aligns with the state's teacher evaluation system is targeted to principals who are new to the process and have only limited experience with CEL 5D+.

Each day of training will include 4 hours of live/virtual training via Zoom from 8:30 am - 12:30 pm along with 2 hours of independent reading and reflection that will need to be completed before the next session. The live sessions will include discussion and various learning engagement strategies about the 5 dimensions and 13 sub-dimensions of Teaching and Learning. The intended audience is principals, assistant principals, and central office staff who evaluate teachers under the TPEP evaluation system and are new to the framework as an evaluator.

Participants will:

• understand the state context and expectations.
• understand connections between the teacher evaluation criteria and the principal evaluation criteria.
• understand how the structure and vocabulary of the instructional framework supports the Washington criteria for teacher evaluation.
• understand the role of multiple sources of evidence in observation feedback and goal-setting.

Participants will be sent the Zoom connection information and other resources one week prior to the first day of this event.
