Maryland State Model for Educator Effectiveness—Student Learning Objectives

The Maryland State Department of Education developed a guidebook for the use of SLOs in its state model for educator effectiveness. The guidebook describes the rationale for using SLOs, how SLOs fit into the Maryland’s State Model for Educator Effectiveness, what an SLO is, and how to use SLOs to evaluate educator effectiveness. The guidebook also discusses how SLOs relate to professional practice.
