Following up on my last post, let's dive in to being oberved as a model for teacher improvement and teacher evaluation. Next time we'll look at the flip side - teachers observing for improvement. As I mentioned last time, I'm writing about New York City public schools but would be interested in hearing what things are like in other locations and other types of institutions. Evaluation and improvement - that's the line but it's rarely the case.

Back in for the evening. Not in Barcelona anymore - spending a few days now in Madrid. Sadly, I got a message from a fellow CS Educator who lives in Barcelona the day we left so if any reader out there is in Madrid - I'm here a couple more days - let me know. For the post at hand, I read this post the other day by Mark Guzdial and it got me thinking about a number of things.
