What artifacts (evidence) do I need to collect?
Educators are responsible for collecting artifacts related to Domains 1 and 4. During your summary year, artifacts should be uploaded into your Google Classroom and assigned to specific components of Domain 1 and 4. While artifacts are “due” in your summary year, it is a good idea to collect relevant documents throughout the three years of your Educator Effectiveness cycle, and then select the best sources of evidence in your summary year.
Evidence for Domains 2 & 3 are collected by your evaluator during observations each year of the cycle. Collecting artifacts related to Domains 2 and 3 is the primary responsibility of the evaluator. Teachers may opt to collect artifacts related to Domains 2 & 3, but this is completely optional.
How many artifacts should I have?
McFarland requires a minimum of 1 item per component in Domains 1 and 4, however, one artifact may address multiple components. Your evaluator may require specific artifacts such as assessments, lesson plans. Evidence/artifacts should be electronic and uploaded into your teacher workbook in your Google Classroom unless approved by your evaluator, must be labeled with the components they address, and include a rationale for choosing them.
