New Utah Standards - New Tools

November 14, 2022

ObserverTab is proactively preparing for the changes in the Utah Effective Teaching Standards (UETS).  We’re currently field testing prototype tools based on the new Utah standards and elements including a Teacher Self-Assessment, a Professional Growth Plan, and a prototype evaluation as part of an essential toolset to support teachers transition to the new UETS.

These prototypes will be revised throughout the school year as we receive further direction from the USBE and feedback from our field test sites.  If you’d like to preview these prototypes, please contact us.  We’ll keep you posted on their progress.
