Assessment Finally, ELL-Observe gives you the information you need to reflect on the observation.
The next time you synchronize your handheld, ELL-Observe downloads a complete record of each classroom visit and prints that record as a form or graphical chart, giving you a detailed account in each category. Using the built in chart features, communicating the analysis of observations has never been easier.
The developers of ELL-Observe are educators that have personally conducted hundreds of classroom observations. Not only do they know how valuable your time is, but also how important quality classroom instruction and academic support is to increasing student achievement of your ELL?s. This tool maximizes the investment of a handheld computer by collecting, analyzing and communicating the teaching trends observed by the administrator or coach.
Used throughout California. Customization Available PortaData does training workshops to ensure easy implementation of these tools. To learn more about their services, please visit them online at: www.portadata.com
