New teacher evaluations linked to student outcomes approved | The Connecticut Mirror: "The State Board of Education Wednesday approved teacher evaluation requirements that pave the way for up to a third of a teacher's grade to be linked to how his or her students perform on standardized tests.
The state's 50,000 teachers will also be evaluated on the results of announced and unannounced classroom observations and anonymous parent or student surveys, if their local school board decides to use surveys to fulfill the feedback requirement.
"This is probably one of the most important things we are going to be doing this year," Allan B. Taylor, the chairman of the state board, said before the unanimous vote."
