Student Learning Objectives (SLO) Training: 

The focus of this training is on Student Learning Objectives (SLOs), one option for measuring Student Growth as part of T-TESS or a locally developed appraisal system. The Student Learning Objective (SLO) Model in Texas provides a framework for continuous dialogue between students, teachers, and principals to support teacher development and student growth throughout the year.  In this training you will understand the SLO process, the value of the SLO process, the pedagogical questions are addressed through SLOs, and how SLOs fit within the broader goals of teacher appraisal. Finally, we want to provide a framework for districts and schools to begin planning for implementation.
