Rubrics for Teacher Evaluation

Rubrics for teacher evaluation are structured tools that assess a teacher’s performance based on specific criteria, such as lesson planning, classroom management, instructional effectiveness, and student engagement. They outline levels of performance—like excellent, proficient, or needs improvement—allowing evaluators to provide clear, consistent feedback. Rubrics help ensure evaluations are fair and objective by defining expectations clearly, guiding teachers on strengths and areas for growth. This structured approach fosters professional development and improves teaching quality by identifying precise aspects of instructional practice.
