Staff will be given time to create
their own account. When they are
ready, we will change their room
numbers so it is easier for
students to log in to their
respective teachers room.
Assessing the teachers will be by
having them create quizzes for
lessons they have planned the
following week.
After the allotted time is up,
teachers will log back into my
room and take an exit ticket to
give feedback. I will ask staff how
they can use this in the room and
how comfortable they feel with
using the tool.
We will share the answers and
discuss feedback orally among
ourselves. We will move to the
district in-service evaluation.
