NEW! The scenario-based experience of Faux Public Schools is grounded in the Victoria Bernhardt model (and offers flexibility for other models used in Nebraska) and provides mock data from a school that is calibrated to a Nebraska Teacher and Principal Performance Standard (NTPPS). This experience will help educators understand the educator effectiveness data types and processes to build a more balanced lens of school and district data that is inclusive of student achievement data, as well as educator effectiveness data.
A Facilitation Guide has been developed to provide those that are responsible for the delivery of this content with additional tools and guidance that will assist in the planning and effective facilitation of the Nebraska Teacher and Principal Performance Standards Presentation relating to the use of educator effectiveness data.
