5D+ Teacher Training (DLN)
MCL 380.1249.(1)2(m). requires districts, intermediate school districts and public school academies to provide training to teachers on the evaluation tool or tools used in its performance evaluation system and on how each evaluation tool is used. In addition, "Michigan’s Revised School Code section 380.1526 requires school districts to provide fifteen days of professional development to teachers across the first three years of their employment (aligned with the individual development plan and mentor’s advice). These days are in addition to the five days the district is required to provide to all teachers."
MASSP has designed 3 professional learning opportunities specific to CEL’s 5D/5D+ Teacher Evaluation System that districts may provide allowing educators to engage anytime, anyplace, and at any pace.
- Intro to the CEL’s 5D/5D+ Teacher Evaluation System
This on demand module provides an overview of CEL’s foundational ideas, 5D instructional framework, 5D+ rubric, and 5D+ inquiry cycle. It fulfills the minimum statutory requirements for teacher training in the district adopted evaluation tool. MASSP is providing this asynchronous module to all 5D+ districts free of charge to assist them in developing an understanding of CEL’s foundational ideas, the 5D instructional framework and the 5D+ teacher evaluation rubric. Participants gain both an understanding of the background and purpose for using the 5 Dimensions of Teaching and Learning™ (5D™) instructional framework, the 5D+™ Rubric for Instructional Growth & Teacher Evaluation and their roles and responsibilities within cycles of inquiry.

A district or mentor may supplement support around the modules using MASSP provided Facilitation Guides as each participant engages and completes the module independently ($150/person; 12 SCECHs)

- 5D/5D+ Dimension Specific Teacher+ Modules
Each of the six carefully crafted modules takes a deep dive into a dimension of CEL’s teacher evaluation system. Each module is designed to provide educators the core knowledge, skills, tools, and dispositions necessary to create and enhance teaching and learning. Each module builds upon an educator’s core knowledge and engages participants in reading, viewing, self-reflection, planning, implementation, and goal setting. A district/school may purchase the Teacher+ modules as a bundle or individually to be taken by all new hires over 1, 2 or 3 years; and/or purchase and assign specific modules to non-traditional teachers (e.g. CTE teachers from business and industry) and teachers on IDPs who need targeted support to grow their practice.
