The Danielson Framework
The state of Idaho is transitioning to the Danielson Framework for assessing its educators. Because of this, I have chosen to organize my portfolio around the four domains of the Danielson Framework: (1) Planning and Preparation, (2) Classroom Environment, (3) Instruction, and (4) Professional Responsibilities.
Information on the four domains is taken from the Danielson Group's website. For more information on the Danielson Group and the Framework, click the button below.
