How much evidence?

Q:  Will teachers need to collect evidence about their performance for each of the 33 elements included in the teacher evaluation rubric?

A: There is no requirement for the number of Elements on which educators OR evaluators are required to gather evidence. We suggest that educators and evaluators share the responsibility of gathering evidence and ensure that there is some evidence for each Indicator, although the preponderance of evidence is likely to be in the areas of most focus. Finally, evaluators will need to have gathered or have access to sufficient evidence to meaningfully inform his/her professional judgment to determine a rating for each Standard.
