In approaching the third year of teaching, this teacher has realized that they have an issue with effectively using assessments to drive instruction. This teacher has had few evaluations from administrators and little feedback on what they are doing well with or how they can improve instruction. What can this new teacher do to provide quality instruction for their students? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) The teacher needs to really sit down with their mentor teacher. It also would help to ask other seasoned teachers as well. I would also talk to my administrators and ask them could they come observe me to provide me with some constructive criticism.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: As teachers our peers can often be our best resource. Every school is likely to have a few teachers who are seasoned and have been through what you are going through. Pick the minds of these people and create your own strategies from there.
