Observation Feedback Forms by Paul Phillips https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb After your group has had time to look through the templates you have been given, write your comments here. Strengths? Weaknesses? Is anything missing? en-us 2019-02-18 06:37:52 UTC 2019-02-24 04:52:48 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Thunder.png What do you mean by stage name and Aim interaction? https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332562048
How is the procedure different to stage name?

Seems to be a lot of paper work! Are we expected to fill out all these forms? Eg Lesson Plan, Observation Feedback Form or are these going to be merged so that we only have one form to complete? also the Peer Observation form 3 should be adjusted - not the full thing.

Observation form 2 appears more practical and user friendly.

Also, the "etc." could be expanded.

There is a lot of repetition. https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332564335 2019-02-19 07:19:35 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332564335 Perhaps 'suggestions' can be removed from the observer's comments on that form, as it is not always going to be about finding something to critique. It could be commending a certain point. A comments box alone should be more than sufficient. https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332564732 2019-02-19 07:21:52 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332564732 5 Observation template 2 https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565589 Way too detailed, at times too prescriptive about what is valued (and these things might not all be demonstrated in every lesson).
Rating system seems all or nothing - excellent or area of growth.

Also - the page(s):  
"Professionalism and Personal Growth" section - how is this to be observed in a single individual lesson? [I think it's meant for annual appraisal rather than an individual lesson observation?]

Not all of those points will necessarily be covered in a lesson, it is a huge list, there are only two ratings (excellent or area for growth). It is overwhelming for both observer and observee. https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565652 2019-02-19 07:26:47 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565652 Form 5 Observation feedback form seems like a checklist of multiple points with two measures from https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565698 Excellent to Areas of Growth.]]> 2019-02-19 07:27:00 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565698 Doc 3 Lesson plan https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332565801 Clarify in Lesson Plan what Personal Objectives can refer to - is it the same as 'any specific area that the observee wants the observer to focus on'?

Personal Objectives - not clear
Observation Feedback Form no.4
If the focus is not addressed, will the observe make comments on it?
Summary Feedback: It appears judgemental. Instead observer should highlight areas of improvement and the need for a follow-up observation.
Observation Feedback Form no.2 (5)
Too much focus on. Needs to be limited.]]> 2019-02-19 07:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566131 Doc 3 Lesson Plan https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566284 Next to Anticipated problems, change 'Solutions' to 'Possible Strategies'.]]> 2019-02-19 07:30:28 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566284 Peer observation form https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566576 " What I’m observing for today (connected to my PD goals)" - in peer observation it might be connected to observee's development goals (or to both observer's and observee's goals). Also, it might be connected to something that's come out of recent teaching (a PD goal) but not a PD goal that was in ADAA.
- Is it a different form (to the other observation form) because it has a different purpose? i.e. if the other observation form about appraisal and this one development or why is it different?
-" What areas are you currently struggling with" - this needs to be re-worded. We are not necessarily struggling with anything! Maybe "interested in developing" or "seeing different ways of doing". ALSO - this assumes peer observation is always about working on something I want to develop: maybe my colleague wants feedback (i.e. maybe show me something they think is working or that they want help with)
-" Key Actionable Changes" / "quick hits" - both sound a bit like marketing speak. Not terribly meaningful.]]> 2019-02-19 07:32:17 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566576 Doc 3 https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566732 2019-02-19 07:33:10 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332566732 form 6 Peer Observation https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332567254 Is this a second observation? 
Are they our colleagues observations?
Is it accountable.

Some of the language eg "Key Actionable Change" could be clarified.

What support is actually available to tutors, and from whom in the case of follow up?
If tutors can select what they specifically want to be focused on, that is good, as it puts the observee at the centre. This form is more balanced in terms of dialogue between observee and observer. The focus seems to be more on the development of the tutor. ]]> 2019-02-19 07:49:06 UTC https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332570095 Peer observation https://padlet.com/paul_phillips1/w4pb161w9bsb/wish/332571619 Overall we felt this form was too prescriptive, but also that it overlooks an opportunity: peer observation can offer so much more.
