We are in the midst of planning an online Instructional Needs Survey as a guide to professional development "hot spots" that we can address. To this end, Mr. Prinstein (Dean of Instruction)and I have started to grapple with the question of what constitutes quality teaching.
We have developed a draft copy of possible survey questions, but it has struck me that we have covered 'routines' and 'rigor' reasonably well, yet have neglected 'relationships'.
I believe that self-assessment is an under-rated tool, as it can return usable results, and of course deep reflection if administered at the right moment and under appropriate conditions.
