The Student Learning Objective (SLO) is a process to document a measure of educator effectiveness based on student achievement of content standards. SLOs are part of Pennsylvania's multiple-measure, comprehensive system of Educator Effectiveness authorized by Act 82 (HB 1901). The SLO process enables educators to have a great deal of control and responsibility over their instructional practice and evaluations. In this process, teachers accept responsibility for crafting the goals, setting student performance indicators/targets, and developing performance measures which will be utilized to determine teacher effectiveness with the students they are instructing in a specific grade level, course, or subject area.
You are invited to participate in this innovative work session, designed to stimulate ideas and conversations surrounding how SLOs could be drafted for speech-language pathologists. Participants will be speech/language pathologists with novice to veteran experience in the field, sharing their perceptions of what constituents a strong SLO and lending their expertise for writing goals, performance measures and performance indicators. An outcome for the day will be the draft development of SLOs for presentation to administrators for proposed implementation during the 2014-2015 school year.
