Classroom Observer Process
Classroom observations provide future educators with the opportunity to see real-world applications of instructional strategies and classroom practices.
If you would like to request observation hours, please contact the appropriate Department Chair directly. A listing of all departments can be found here: [insert link].
Definition of Observation
An observation is defined as watching a teacher provide instruction in the classroom. During an observation, individuals:
-May observe instruction only
-May not interact with students
-May not assist with instruction or mini-lessons
-May not engage in classroom activities
If your program requires you to work directly with students, assist with instruction, or participate in any interactive capacity, you must follow the Clinical/Field Experience process outlined below.
Confidentiality Requirement
Confidentiality is of the utmost importance. By participating in a classroom observation, individuals agree to maintain strict confidentiality regarding all student information, records, and any details related to students enrolled at Maine Township High School District 207.
