What makes teachers happy with their evaluations AND improves student performance? Raising daily classroom rigor with increased implementation of Marzano’s teacher instructional techniques. Join longtime Marzano Evaluation lover Debbie Friedman in this engaging session where she shares how she implemented evaluation elements as a principal by working with small groups of students who struggled with reading in order to acquire personal experience that was foundational to gaining teacher buy-in of the evaluation tool as a vehicle for school improvement. In this session, Debbie reveals the secrets of success that resulted in moving one school from the 300 lowest performing schools in the state to one of the top 10% in ELA. Debbie credits the widespread implementation of Marzano’s teacher instructional techniques as one of the main reasons for increased student achievement. This is a perfect choice for classroom teachers, school and district leaders seeking to identify instructional techniques that are easily implemented, and learn the “how to” behind bundling multiple elements into lessons to raise test scores while getting teachers excited about their evaluation outcomes.
