(FORMS)
1.
The evaluation
instruments are designed to reflect the College of Education's
Conceptual Framework
("The Teacher is a Reflective Facilitator"), as found on pages
2 to 4 in this handbook.
The revised instruments are also designed to reflect the
Wisconsin Teacher Standards
(Appendix A-1) and the National Council for the
Accreditation of Teacher Education
(NCATE) 2000 Unit Standards (Appendix
A-2). In some cases, the
evaluation instruments are also linked to specialty
organizations, such as the
Council for Exceptional Children.
2.
Interim
evaluation.
Cooperating teachers and student teachers are required to
complete the evaluation instrument
for the student teachers' specific program at
approximately the mid-point of the
placement. They should complete the instrument
independently, share the results
with the student teacher's university supervisor, and
use the results as the central feature
of a two-way (student teacher and cooperating
teacher) or three-way (student teacher,
cooperating teacher, and university supervisor)
conference. Cooperating teachers
are required to return their interim evaluation form
to the university supervisor. The
university supervisor forwards the interim evaluation
form to the Office of Field Experiences
where it is filed for five years and then
destroyed.
3.
Final
evaluation.
Near or at the end of the placement, cooperating teachers
and
student teachers are again
required to complete the evaluation instrument, following
the same procedures as those
outlined for the interim evaluation. Cooperating
teachers are required to return
their final evaluation form to the university supervisor.
The university supervisor forwards
the final evaluations form to the Office of Field
Experiences where it is filed for
five years and then destroyed.
