Local Systemic Change through Teacher Enhancement Classroom Observation Protocol
Author: Horizon Research, Inc.
Date: 1999
Method: Observation Protocol
The instrument was developed to measure the quality of an observed K-12 science or mathematics classroom lesson by examining the design, implementation, mathematics/science content, and culture of that lesson. The items it contains are based on standards of quality mathematics and science instruction as outlined in the National Science Education Standards and NCTM Standards. The protocol was developed and is used as part of the core evaluation of the Local Systemic Change through Teacher Enhancement program.
Notes on use: The protocol is intended to reflect the current standards for exemplary practice, but not to prescribe particular instructional strategies.
