FINDING AND EVALUATING OBSERVATION PROTOCOLS ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONSIt is important for aspiring administrators to understand that different school districts have different expectations regarding both the frequency of observations and the areas that are observed and evaluated. By finding samples of protocols (Classroom Observation Forms) from various states and districts as well as private schools, you will begin to realize that policy and practice (instead of the principal) usually dictate how observations/evaluations are conducted.For this assignment, locate 10 observation protocols (forms) utilizing the Internet. These protocols are sometimes called observation checklists, observation forms, or evaluation forms. Your 10 selected protocols must represent a variety of states, levels (elementary/middle/high), and subject areas and must include both public and private schools. (Please note: You will select one of the ten protocol forms to use in the Completing Observation Cycle for a Teacher Assignment). No more than one protocol may be used from the same website, school, and/or district. One way to think about this assignment is to consider it similar to an annotated bibliography. Create a single Word document for your 10 observational protocols (forms) that includes the following:For the body of the paper, and for each protocol (form), list the URL hyperlink (please make sure the link is active) to the website where the observation instrument is located.Underneath each URL hyperlink, provide a written description of how that particular instrument is used. Your summary should include:How often teachers are observedThe domains on the form by which teachers are measuredThe usage of the formThe rating scale usedOther information that might be pertinent to the form and how it is usedInclude a title page and references page containing a list of the schools and their URL links that are used in this assignmentPlease ensure that each URL you provide goes to the actual observation form to be used and not to a manual of instructions. If you must list the URL for a manual, please provide the page number of the location of the observation form in the manual. It is important that your instructor can access the form you are describing. If you have to click on other links on the website, please be specific as to how to locate the form. (Please see the Finding and Evaluating Observations Protocols Example provided.)For the References page, you will list the names of the schools and their corresponding URL used for this assignment. References are to be formatted according to current APA standards.
