Student teacher feedback

For those that host student teachers, here's a tip that has worked really well for us:

Have your student teacher create all lesson plans in a Google doc that is shared with the cooperating teacher and also with the supervising university professor.  During the lesson, the GBN teacher can make notes in the Google doc as the lesson is happening. Not only is this a great way to provide feedback to your student teacher, but the university can also see what types of opportunities your student teacher is getting, how it is going, and what type of feedback you are providing.   This really helps to facilitate the cooperation between GBN and the colleges/universities that send us student teachers. And, at the end of the student teaching assignment, the student will have a comprehensive list of all of the lessons that they taught, with your feedback to help them tweak their lessons in the future.
