The document in the article below this one, about Penny Schwinn’s presentation to the Delaware Department of Education went over many topics, including a student growth model. It talked about an RFP, which is an overview of what prospective vendors can look at to determine if they want to bid on the project. I have located the RFP on the state contract page. It is interesting with the wording for teacher evaluations….
How will they determine whether the model is valid and reliable? Where is the stipulation that the model must be proven effective for the intended use?
Oh, wait. If they required that, no one would be able to give them a proposal because no such thing exists. Right. I almost forgot.
