Description

Educators will gather and reflect on student feedback to improve student outcomes. This can include student surveys, feedback on specific lessons or units, or other means of capturing student perspectives.

Process

1. Select a method to collect student feedback (e.g., surveys, focus groups, informal reflections).
2. Analyze and reflect on insights from survey responses.
3. Develop and consider adjustments based on feedback.
4. The educator and their supervisor will engage in a collaborative dialogue to review the planning, delivery, and impact of Reflective Practice Through Student Perspectives.

Outcomes

• Enhanced reflective practice through direct input from learners.
• More responsive and student-centered practices.
• Increased student engagement and agency in learning.

Parameters

• The “Reflective Practice Through Student Perspectives” option does not require educators to submit student feedback. The emphasis is on reflection and continuous improvement.
• The focus of any insights gained from the supervisor should be supportive of professional growth, not a measure of teacher effectiveness.
