TEACHING RUBRIC FOR FORMAL OBSERVATIONS OF STUDENT LESSONS, 2015-2016, 2016-2017, 2017-2018
PURPOSE
The purpose of this instrument is to capture critical information about candidate performance during practicum (student teaching
experience).
ADMINISTRATION
The instrument is administered each term and are reported in this EXSUM on an annual basis (Fall 2015-Summer 2016, Fall 2016-
Summer 2017, and Fall 2017-Summer 2018). Observations are conducted by the University Supervisor for scoring, in
consultation with the P-12 cooperating teacher.
INSTRUMENT
The assessment instrument is comprised of a five-point performance rating scale (i.e., 1= Not Observed, 2=Observed Ineffective, 3=
Observed Developing, 4=Observed Effective, 5=Observed Highly Effective). The criterion for success on this instrument is that
candidates achieve a mean of 3.0 or above.
2
Criteria area aligned with the CAEP Standards, InTASC Standards, EPP Candidate Learning Outcomes (CLOs) and Equity and
Access Indicators, Danielson and Marzano Frameworks, ISTE standards, College and Career Standards, as well as New York State
Standards.
RELIABILITY AND VALIDITY
Validity and Reliability will be established spring 2020.
ANALYSIS
The statistical processes applied were Mean, Standard Deviation, and Variance. The data charts presented below reflect aggregate and
disaggregate mean comparisons for three assessment cycles for the Educator Preparation Program (EPP), Mathematics, Education and
Special Education (ED/SP), Early Childhood Education and Special Education, Birth Grade 2 (B-2), Childhood Education and Special
Education, Grade1-6 (1-6), and Teaching Students with Disabilities, 7-12 Generalist Program (7-12). For all three cycles, across all
programs, the overall EPP Mean was (> 3.0). At the program level, all means were (>3.0), with the exception of 5c Provides
Opportunities for Peer Assessment with a Mean of 2.88 for Childhood Education and Special Education (2016-2017).
Additionally, and with the exception of the programs Childhood Education and Special Education (2015-2016) and Math (2016-
2017), the lowest Means across all cycles were found in the areas of Assessment for the items 5a “Uses a Variety of Assessment
to Plan,” 5c “Provides Opportunities for Peer-Assessment,” and 5e “Uses Assessment to Apply Evidence-based Practice.” An
aggregate review of data (2017-2018) revealed high incidents of not observed for 1e Demonstrates Knowledge of Resources
Including Technology and 5e Provides Opportunities for Peer-Assessment.

ACTIONS FOR PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT
AY16 the Office of Clinical Practice engaged in process improvement and systems development. An orientation for supervisors was
provided and professional development opportunities were developed. Initial programs participated in a Department of Education
collaborative to discuss placement for clinically-rich experiences. For the following year (2016-2017), professional development was
provided to university supervisors on how to use clinical rubrics. The Office of Clinical Practice reinforced the new systems and
streamlined processes.
A partnership with District 75 was established for clinical practice. Fall 2017-summer 2018, a consultant/clinical liaison was hired to
build closer relationships with schools and districts. Principal Informational Sessions were implemented to build clinical partnerships.
Clinical faculty were provided professional development based on the outcomes of the Observation Rubric instrument. Instrument
Understanding was targeted through Inference Notes for clinical faculty. Fall 2018- summer 2019, and after careful consideration of
the results of the observations, the Director of Clinical Practice and department chairs decided the observation data should be reported
and reviewed each semester instead of annually so that programs can implement actions for improvement after each term. In an effort
to address the high incidents of “not observed” for 1e Demonstrating Knowledge of Resources Including Technology, and 5c Provides
Opportunities for Peer Assessment, as well as the lowest Means areas for assessment, the Dean and the EPP established a new
definition of educational technology and established guidelines for assessment and technology for clinical faculty via the Faculty
4
Effectiveness and Development (FED) Continuum Framework. The target for improvement is a decrease in the count of incidents Not
Observed related to 1e. Demonstrates Knowledge of Resources Including Technology by 10% for Spring 2020.
