What is the purpose of the Goal-Setting and Professional Development Plan process? GSPD is an ongoing, recursive process through which teachers authentically engage in reflection about current professional practices, identify individualized professional growth goals, establish and implement a professional development plan to attain those goals, and track progress toward the goals over the course of the year.

Goal Setting Expectations
Goal Setting Helps teachers… Reflect on their current professional practices Identify their professional growth goals Build their professional development plan to attain those goals, and Track progress toward their goals over the course of the year
Teacher Reflects on T-TESS Rubric & Personal Practice to Draft Goal Teacher Reflects on Progress; Supervisor and Teacher Discuss Progress Teacher Shares Goal with Supervisor for Feedback Professional Growth Process Teacher Implements Learning Strategies for Attaining Growth Goal Supervisor Approves Goal or Asks for Revision
Professional growth goals drive significant progress in student achievement and personal effectiveness.
T-TESS Professional Growth Goals Focus on improving professional practices and instructional skills Align with educator performance standards in the T-TESS system Use a variety of sources and types of student data that reflect student needs and strengths, educator data, and school/district data Should be created in consultation with appraiser
Types of Goals Program goals tend to be less personal and are less threatening because they focus on programs, activities, materials, curriculum, etc. Example: To improve student success, I will review and make appropriate changes to my selection of supplemental math curriculum materials. Learner goals provide an opportunity to measure more accurately how well the teacher met a pre-established goal; however, the ends-orientation of this kind of goal-setting has less effect on the means of instruction and may change annually. Example: At least 80% of students will be able to correctly identify at least 80% of the presidents by October 15. Performance goals offer the best chance for personal involvement on the teacher’s part because these kinds of goals focus specifically on the teacher’s behavior, rather than on the students or programs. Example: I will improve my abilities to monitor and adjust instruction through targeted questioning techniques at varied levels of cognition, the use of wait time, and academic feedback to students.
Performance Goals Reflect a desire to learn new skills, master new tasks, and understand new things Increase use of instructional objectives in developing effective classroom teaching strategies Develop procedures for increasing the amount and quality of student-teacher interactions Tailor questioning to different ability levels in the classroom Increase involvement of students through the use of more student-centered teaching techniques Promote or encourage personal sustainability
Teacher Reflection & Considerations Please take some time to reflect on the following questions prior to beginning the goal-setting process: What do I want to change about my practice that will effectively impact student learning? How can I develop a plan of action to address my professional learning? How will I know if I accomplished my objective?
Post – It Time! On a post-it, write down three things you would like to change or improve about your instruction
What are SMART Goals Specific Measurable What you want to accomplish? Who, What, Where, When, Which, Why How will you demonstrate and evaluate the extent to which the goal has been met? Ambitious/Attainable/ How can you set stretch and challenging goals within your own Actionable/Achievable ability to achieve the desired outcome? What is the action-oriented verb? Relevant How does the goal tie into your key responsibilities? How is it aligned to the your objective? Is it aligned to best practices and research and/or district/campus/team priorities? Time-Bound Does it have a clear end or target date with intermittent benchmarks to guide your goal to a successful and timely completion? Deadlines, Dates, Frequency, Etc.
Sample SMART Goal By using strategies found in Pathways to Understanding, by Laura Lipton, I will incorporate the use of at least three new instructional strategies into my teaching practice during the 2015 -2016 school year to help students become independent learners and problem solvers.
Breaking down the SMART Goal… Specific the use of at least three new instructional strategies Measurable to help students become independent learners and problem solvers (The evidence for effectiveness might include the following: comparison of student work samples from assignments given before and after using the three strategies. ) Ambitious/Attainable/ Actionable/Achievable Incorporate three new instructional strategies (action verb) Relevant found in Pathways to Understanding (research based) Time-Bound during the 2015 -2016 school year
Appraiser Goal Review & Feedback Administrators will review the teacher’s goal to determine if it meets the following criteria: Does the goal articulate what the teacher wants to change about his/her practice that will effectively impact student learning? Does the goal include a plan of action to address the teacher’s professional learning? Does the goal include sources of evidence that would serve as success criteria for meeting the identified objective?

How do we Document Goal Creation? Goal-setting conference with appraiser CWTs and coaching sessions Formative reviews with colleagues (PLC/faculty meetings, peer partners, etc. ) Pre-conference with appraiser Post-conference with appraiser
How do we Document Goal Progress? Personal evidence/artifact collection throughout the year Personal goal reflection to prepare for end-of-year conference Identify the evidence of goal attainment/progress, including the impact on student achievement. Identify the professional development participation connections for this goal. Describe how you used this goal and the professional development above to impact instruction and student achievement. What, if anything, would you have done differently? How will you extend this goal/learning? End-of-year conference with appraiser
Key Points to Consider
Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 150. The GSPD Plan shall be: • Submitted to the teacher’s appraiser within the first six weeks from the day of completion of the T-TESS orientation for teachers new to TTESS or the district. • Drafted at the end-of-year conference and submitted to the teacher’s appraiser within the first six weeks of instruction for teachers who were previously appraised with T-TESS. • Approved by the appraiser. • Maintained throughout the course of the school year by the teacher to track progress and attainment of goals and participation in professional development activities detailed in the approved plan.
Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 150. The GSPD Plan shall be: • Shared with the appraiser prior to the end-of-year conference. • Used after the end-of-year conference in the determination of ratings for the goal setting and professional development dimensions of the T-TESS Rubric. A GSPD Conference is required for all teachers in the first year of appraisal under T-TESS and for teachers who are new to the district.
