I understand why this type of course is developed, but not everyone is successful with e-learning. I’d like a paper-based training with an instructor available to answer questions.

This course helped me understand the appraisal system under which my effectiveness as a teacher will be measured.
Linda – PASADENA ISD (verified owner) –
The course is very well done with the exception of one area. The five minute quizzes were too difficult to complete effectively in the time allowed. Also, the font of the rubric was way too small to read well, especially given the short amount of time.

This was a very comprehensive course. It’s interactive which helps you to really dig into the material. By digging in, I understood the rubrics and ratings better. I’m glad it was not a “passive” training in that respect.

It is a pretty long course, especially for new teachers like myself. However, it did give me a better idea of what to expect from an appraisal. I do not like the timed 5 minute sections however, barely gave me time to put together answers.

This was a great course that broke down T-TESS observations into simple, manageable parts that were easy to understand.

Cavan – PASADENA ISD (verified owner) –
modules were great but having to reanswer questions 3 times because its not saving is very frustrating and becomes a waste of time. It even showed my answrs posted amongst others but then acted like they weren’t answered even after refreshing the page
