Opening the Conversation for Monitoring
What are the Experts Saying?
Dr. Kevin Feldman: ‘…useful or “actionable” feedback is a critical attribute in learning and continuous improvement.’
Doug Fisher and Nancy Frey: ‘True teacher leadership requires empowerment.’
City, Elmore, Fiarman, and Teitel: ‘We learn to do the work by doing the work, not by telling other people to do the work, not by having done the work at some time in the past, and not by hiring experts who can act as proxies for our knowledge about how to do the work.’
31
Opening the Conversation for MonitoringACTIVITY
32
DIRECTION for ACTIVITY•Each school should have a stack of Monitoring Activity Cards
•Use the four resource articles to complete the description box for each card
•As a group determine if this activity is:• Not possible at our school• We can do this with some training• This practice is in place at our school
•Use a blank card to record and describe a monitoring activity in your school not listed on the cards.

MDE Program Evaluation Tool (PET) 2016
Requirements
Dr. Michael Radke, Director MDE Office of Field Services speaks…
“Yes, schools can use the PET on the same strategy/initiative/program for the second year (and possibly beyond). This is based on the belief that it may take 2-3 years to fully implement a major S/I/P, see data showing impact on achievement/gaps, and learning how to use the PET process with fidelity.”
“Yes, we only require use of the PET on ONE S/I/P just like last year.”
