Question.5343 - M2: Discussion Week 2 - Comparing & Applying Frameworks for Effective InstructionReview the Guidelines for Online Discussions and the discussion rubric before posting.Week 2 Discussion PromptPart A: Comparing FrameworksCompare and contrast the frameworks for effective instruction that you read this week. What similarities and/or differences jumped out at you? You may want to consider the frameworks' distinct content, structure, and/or definition of 'good teaching.' Which framework would you prefer as a supervisor? Which framework would you prefer as a teacher?Part B: Applying a FrameworkYou will practice using a framework for effective instruction to analyze an instructional artifact. There are many kinds of data you can gather about a teacher's practice. In this case, the artifact will be a lesson plan. (Remember that all artifacts of instruction are limited. We cannot say anything about how a teacher implements a lesson from a lesson plan.)Everyone will use this lesson plan:The True History of Voting RightsVoting Rights CardsVoting Rights TimelineChoose one framework from this week’s readings that you will use:MarzanoDanielsonStrongeMarshallPart 1Use the framework to analyze the lesson plan. What are strengths in the lesson plan? What opportunities for improvement are there in the lesson plan? Explicitly link components of the framework to evidence from the lesson plan to back-up your claims.Tips:Specific, detailed, and bite-sized feedback is most actionable for teachers. Refer to subcategories rather than large domains from the framework.Focus on what the teacher DOES, not what they don’t do. We are always not doing a million things. For areas for future growth, it can be helpful to think about something that the teacher is doing but could be doing better.Remember that we are using these frameworks to learn about a teacher's practice, rather than to assess them. Limit evaluative words and use low-inference, descriptive words.Part 2Reflect by Responding to the Following Questions:What was it like to use this tool? What were the challenges of using this framework, or what made it user-friendly?What opportunities and limits does the framework have in terms of illuminating a teacher’s strengths and weaknesses? What does it help you see? What does it ignore?In what cases would this framework be especially helpful for supervising a teacher? (You may want to consider what situations or what kinds of teachers would benefit most from this framework.)
