Evaluation of Co-Teaching
For districts electing to adopt co-teaching district-wide, evaluation must be addressed at several different layers. In addition to formal evaluations and walk-throughs of teachers implementing co-teaching, the district must determine how co-teaching will be integrated into the evaluation of current campus administrators and into the interview process for new administrators. For co-teaching to reach its full potential, principals must understand that effective co-teaching involves more than sending teachers to a one-time training and expecting successful implementation without the necessary resources and supports. Administrators must be held accountable for the effectiveness of co-teaching on their campuses, including how successful they have been in implementing, monitoring, and evaluating co-teaching.
Evaluation of student outcomes as demonstrated through traditional data and student-based evidence of progress is important in determining the success of the co-teaching program. In addition to traditional grades, IEP progress reports, and state assessment results, student-based evidence of progress includes data such as:
• instructional settings (looking at whether students are in less restrictive settings than before co-teaching was implemented);
• results of formative assessments, such as benchmark tests (not just analyzing traditional grades, IEP progress reports, and state assessment results);
• parent responses to co-teaching;
• community responses to co-teaching; and
• Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) results and data.
