Teaching Demonstrations Principles, Guiding Questions, and Equity Framework

What should be our fundamental PRINCIPLE?

When designing TEACHING DEMONSTRATION guidelines, use the following principle for evaluation of candidates:

• Principle: Consideration of the perspectives of students of color and students from diverse backgrounds

What GUIDING QUESTIONS should we use?

As you design guidelines for candidate TEACHING DEMONSTRATIONS, ask the following questions:

• Have we made room to incorporate the feedback of students from diverse backgrounds and students of color in the decision-making process?
• Are we assessing the way the candidate actualizes equity and culturally responsive pedagogy for multiple perspectives and by varying the teaching or student service methodologies?
• Do we see the responsibility to relationship-building, cultural relevance, and scaffolding for rigor?
• Is the candidate demonstrating an ability to think of and value of the whole student?

Which EQUITY FRAMEWORK foundations should focus our work?

Use the following equity foundations to frame evaluation of TEACHING DEMONSTRATIONS:

I	Evidence based	Regular review of disaggregated data to inform change
V	Equity advancing	Willing to assess own practice and accountable to closing equity gaps
