Announced Observation. An observation that lasts for a period of time in order to observe a lesson or including transitions between lessons. Feedback for announced observations is provided through formal pre‐observation and post‐observation conferences. (a) Pre‐Observation Conference: A conference between an Evaluator and an Educator that may be used to obtain background information in advance of a particular Announced Observation or to receive information about a particular classroom activity that he or she will observe, including the goals for the lesson. This conference may be used by the Educator and Evaluator to collaboratively clarify, refine, and/or elaborate the activities and the goals they are meant to achieve. (b) Post‐Observation Conference: A conference between an evaluator and educator following an announced observation. The educator and evaluator shall review the goals of the lesson, the outcomes; discuss what the evaluator observed, and what students were learning.
