This blog is a copy of the survey that our building
leadership team created to analyze the progress of our Teacher Based Teams and
to use as data to set the course for future progress. Our team used Google
forms to create the survey for the staff. You could easily copy and paste this
to Google forms to create your own survey. You will see a title to each
question. This is an option in Google forms.
In the next blog, I will share a summary of the results of
our survey at East.
Introduction:
The purpose of Teacher Based Teams is to bring teachers
together to review student data and create intervention from this data. In
addition, teams should discuss how the intervention went and what can be done
if the intervention did not work. Teacher Based Teams is also a time for
teachers to collaborate on instruction and learning strategies both before and
after instruction happens. The purpose here is for continued improvement in
instruction and student achievement.
Teacher Based Teams develop with time and professional
development. This survey is intended to find out where Teacher Based Teams are
now and how they can be better served.
