Purpose
to support four projects designed to advance the design of sound and effective systems of educator effectiveness across their 16-state region. The projects will benchmark the design of state systems of teacher effectiveness with the Foundation’s nine MET principles; examine state efforts to improve observation practices as part of teacher evaluation; convene state and district leaders to learn from the experiences of select IPS districts; and develop a plan for a longer-term effort to demonstrate what instruction aligned with the Common Core State Standards looks like in the classroom
