The Idaho state certified staff evaluation requirements
The Idaho state requirements for instructional and pupil service staff evaluations are included in both administrator and educator portals. View 1-page PDF here: OSBE Evaluation Requirements.


Where do I get the platform for my Local Education Agency?
If you are interested in opting in for use of this platform, please contact Kathleen Shoup (KShoup@edu.idaho.gov), Educator Effectiveness Program Manager at OBSE.


How do I Invite Other Admins and Educators?
  1. In most case, your portal includes the roster of certified staff but they have not been invited (e.g., in Participants, name is highlighted and status is 'Not Invited')
  2. You are welcome to email the invitations to your certified staff from Participants (watch 2-minute tutorial)
  3. Contact “Support” (top-right) for help completing this step.

It is a local level decision to use the self-reflection form within the teacher portal. This self-reflection form is not a state requirement.
Notice that:
  1. The evaluation portion of this platform is based on the Danielson Framework 2nd Edition.
  2. The self-reflection portion is based on the newest Danielson Framework, and is aligned to the Danielson Framework 2nd Edition.
  3. SuperAdmins can disable this self-reflection for their staff in Participants.

Learning and Coaching Groups
Like SuperAdmin(s), principals (e.g., Admins) can also create new Learning + Coaching groups, and add 'owners' and 'participants' to these groups but of course drawing only from their participants.
