Teacher Evaluation

Purpose of the TIGER Model for Evaluation

The Teacher Instructional Growth for Effectiveness and Results (TIGER) Model is an alternative teacher evaluation process developed by The Association of Independent and Municipal Schools (AIMS). It was truly developed by practitioners for practitioners after a deep consideration of current trends and issues within teacher evaluation.

The model is designed to promote teacher growth and to ensure all teachers provide quality instruction that aligns with school, district, and state goals. TIGER is a differentiated model of teacher support that provides for “stages” of teacher development, as well as, both a formative and summative process of evaluation. The model includes a ‘coaching’ component for Stage One and a leadership component for Stage Three, with an emphasis on professional learning communities throughout.
