TEACHER EVALUATION RUBRICS -

Construct 1: Learner and Learning
To ensure that each student learns new knowledge and skills, teachers must understand
that learning and developmental patterns vary individually, that students bring unique
individual differences to the learning process, and that students need supportive and
safe learning environments to thrive. Demonstration of the teacher’s proficiency in
Learner and Learning is evidenced by:

1.1 Learner Development

The teacher planned instruction based on the learning and developmental levels of all
students. Key indicators include: planning instruction, aligning instruction with student
learning needs, using a variety of approaches and resources, providing adaptation of
instruction.

1.2 Learner Differences

The teacher recognized and fostered individual differences to establish a positive
classroom culture. Key indicators include: getting to know all students, using that
knowledge of students to create a culture of respect, meeting needs of all students.

1.3 Learning Environment

The teacher established a classroom environment conducive to learning. Key indicators
include: collaborating with students, establishing a safe, respectful and academically
challenging environment.
