Walkthrough tools

They are used to provide teachers with constructive critical feedback aimed at improving theirclassroom management and instructional techniques. School administrators also regularly observe teachers as an extension of formal job-performance evaluations. We offer the following tools to support you in conducting these walkthroughs. We would appreciate receiving any that you find to be helpful. Please send us the tool, along with a brief description of its use.
