  Case: Is TKES Too Much?
I haven't been teaching very long, but I have heard about the different variations of teacher observations during the years. Veteran teachers and administrators I've talked to say it allows the administrator multiple opportunities to get inside of the classroom. The flip side is, administration does not have time to do a whole lot else. A principal with over 50 teachers having to do 2 walk throughs and a 30 minute summative is a lot. Imagine those who have more than that! Is this requirement too much, and should the start revisit it to make adjustments?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that TKES is on the right track with providing relevant evaluation measures and procedures for administrators as well as teachers, but I also think that they have a LONG way to go. To answer your question, yes, I do believe that it is too much. However, to evaluate a teacher on ten standards in just a few short observations is not enough for the administrator to obtain a clear picture of what is going on in that classroom. So, a happy medium must be found.
