The Department has developed guiding principles of a high quality educator effectiveness system; building from these definitions, Kimball and colleagues support three areas of activities: 1) developing a model performance-based evaluation systems for teachers and principals; 2) developing a regulatory framework for implementation (which includes how student achievement data will be used in context); and 3) recommending methods to support educator improvement and recognize performance.
