The Danielson Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument and the Co-Teaching Core Competency Framework: A Crosswalk to Support Co-Teaching Continuous Improvement
Public Deposited- Abstract
- Recent decades have brought schools and educators toward implementing more inclusive educational programming for students with disabilities. The co-teaching paradigm has become increasingly applied in an effort to provide students with disabilities with a Free Appropriate Public Education within the Least Restrictive Environment. However, educator preparation and administrator knowledge of co-teaching remain inconsistent. This results in limited opportunities for co-teaching educators to experience structured observations leading to reflective discourse to promote continuous improvement of their co-teaching practices. The Danielson (2013) Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument is one of the most prevalently utilized evaluation tools for assessing educator effectiveness. The present study investigates the potential utility of the Danielson (2013) Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument for supporting continuous improvement of co-teaching educators. This is accomplished by a component by competency crosswalk comparison between the competencies of the Co-Teaching Core Competency Framework (Murawski & Lochner, 2014) and the components of the Danielson (2013) Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument. The crosswalk investigation reveals strong alignment between the co-teaching competencies of the Murawski and Lochner (2014) Co-Teaching Core Competency Framework and the components of the Danielson (2013) Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument. For co-teaching practitioners and educator leaders seeking to promote professional discourse around co-teaching, the Danielson (2013) Framework for Teaching Evaluation Instrument may provide a familiar, accessible structure in which to anchor these conversations.
