University of the Virgin Islands School of Education Bachelor of Education Fall 2015 Elementary Education Student Teaching Competency Evaluation STT 2; STX 1 TO THE EVALUATOR: Place your evaluation in the appropriate column entitled “Rating.” The ST column is for the student teacher to do a self-assessment. The CT column is for the cooperating teacher and the US column is for the University supervisor. Please evaluate according to the table below. A rating of “5” indicates a continuous outstanding or superior performance with unusual initiative and imagination. A rating of “4” indicates that the student’s work is of a very good quality and is performed without much assistance. A rating of “3” indicates generally satisfactory work with guidance and supervision, but denotes need for improvement. Is also indicates average performance for a student teacher in relation to his/her peers. A rating of “2” indicates a definite weakness in the area. The student teacher however, seems capable of attaining satisfactory standards if carefully guided and supervised. A rating of “1” indicates a very serious weakness and it is questionable whether the student can attain a satisfactory level of performance in that area even with continued help.
