Teachscape is now offering two additional Classroom Walk Through (CWT) surveys to instructional leaders across the state to assist them in their efforts to improve the implementation of the co-teaching model and to increase the use of effective classroom management strategies within their school and district. Like the standard Teachscape CWT data collection, analysis, and reporting system software, these new surveys will enable instructional leaders to track instructional improvement relative to the use of effective classroom management or co-teaching practices using research-based indicators (“look fors”). Afterwards, leaders can use the surveys as a framework for reflective dialogue, data analysis, action planning, and progress monitoring to assist staff in setting and meeting improvement goals.

The Effective Classroom Management and Co-Teaching CWTs can be downloaded from the Teachscape website http://www.teachscape.com/. The attachments to this memorandum contain instructions for their use and a Co-Teaching CWT Glossary.
