By finding samples of protocols from various states and districts, you will begin to realize that policy and practice (instead of the principal) sometimes dictate how observations/evaluations are conducted. For this assignment, locate 10 observation protocols utilizing research and the Internet. These protocols are sometimes called observation checklists or evaluation forms. The 10 selected protocols must represent a variety of states, levels (elementary/middle/high), and subject areas and must include both public and private schools (note: one of the 10 must be the protocol that will be used in your observation cycle assignment during Module/Week 8). Create an electronic portfolio of these observational protocols and include directions for the utilization of the tool. This portfolio must be organized as 1 document with the last page (entitled “References”) containing a list of URL links that are used in the project. The document must include the details of all of the different protocols you found. Make this a practical assignment that can be utilized when observing and conferencing with teachers. The easiest way to think about this assignment is to consider it an annotated bibliography. It is suggested that, for the body of the paper, you put the hyperlink to the website where the observation instrument is located and then follow with your summary of that particular instrument. For the references page, you will list the websites you used in current APA format. This assignment is due by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday of Module/Week 7.
