How to Strengthen Evidence Before Your Next Observation

Use prior feedback as a planning input without chasing a rating or turning the lesson into a performance.

High-impact principles

• Use prior feedback as a diagnostic, not as a script.
• Choose one or two high-leverage changes that improve learning and visibility.
• Track whether students are doing more thinking, explaining, monitoring, and revising.

Use this with your framework

Choose the framework your administrator actually uses, then apply these principles to its exact components and local evidence rules.
