    T-TESS Rubric Update for Virtual Classrooms

    Given the increase in virtual classrooms and requests from districts statewide, the TEA is developing an aligned T-TESS rubric which isolates relevant, high-leverage practices in virtual instruction settings. This streamlined rubric will address the Planning, Instruction, and Learning Environment domains, including all current T-TESS dimensions within these domains. The rubric communicates best practices for virtual instruction and allows for focused observations and feedback with virtual instruction teachers. PLI is offering open labs to discuss the virtual instruction rubric. See the T-TESS/T-PESS Calendar to select a time and register on Eduphoria!.
