Educational Vistas: StaffTrac Training

StaffTrac Training

StaffTrac™ is a comprehensive web-based teacher-principal evaluation management system. States and school districts are able to customize their full evaluation processes to individualized procedures. All rubrics, including Danielson and Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), and multiple components of any teacher evaluation software may be tailored to mirror your school's process.

StaffTrac™ provides a fully electronic process for conducting observations. Administrators add evidence and comments in the actual domain areas. Ratings and scores are automatically incorporated according to district specifications. Staffrac™ provides a process for developing Student Learning Objectives (SLOs). All sections of the SLOs are developed electronically and targets are scored using growth and achievement measures. Targets are converted to effectiveness ratings, based upon state/district conversion scales and StaffTrac™ includes tools for adjusting and predicting targets for SLOs. Student assessments scores are linked directly to teachers' rosters using a fully integrated process with all student information systems. All student readiness assessment data is maintained over multiple years for easy access, comparison, and statistical analysis.

Our program easily manages scheduling hundreds of evaluation meeting and archives all dates and times for convenient retrieval. All other components of teacher/principal evaluations such as portfolios, student/staff surveys, and artifacts are integrated and customized. In addition to the above features, it includes online assessment tools for teachers, a scheduling system for managing and tracking all meetings, a human resource module for immediate access to teacher data, and a professional learning module for handling improvement plans, tracking professional development hours, and managing all professional learning opportunities.
