T-TESS Appraiser Training Guide, T-TESS Rubric, and T-TESS Rubric Flipchart
T-TESS Appraiser Training Guide, T-TESS Rubric, and T-TESS Rubric Flipchart
Product Update: We are excited to announce an important update to our TT-TESS Appraiser Training Guide, T-TESS Rubric, and T-TESS Rubric Flipchart. The updated version now includes the new Alt Domain I Rubric, further enhancing your training and implementation experience.
The Appraiser Training Guide and the T-TESS Rubric are required resources for all participants enrolled in the three-day T-TESS Appraiser Training, and are necessary to implement the T-TESS process as an ongoing system of feedback and support for continuous teacher growth.
The T-TESS Rubric Flipchart is optional - it is an added bonus, but not required.
The T-TESS Appraiser Training Guide and the T-TESS Rubric were crafted to enhance the T-TESS experience, and will be used during the training to help guide the application and understanding of the T-TESS domains, dimensions, descriptors, and performance levels.
The T-TESS Rubric Flipchart was created as a quick easy tool to reference during goal-setting, pre-conference, and/or post-conference meetings with teachers to connect T-TESS domains and dimensions. Appraisers can take this tool with them to classroom observations, and teachers can use the flipchart as a handy reference, too.
