The Pathfinder Evaluation Tool measures the effectiveness of teaching and learning at your school. This tool allows educators to establish customized measures of success for each lesson and then measure to what extent those measures are actually being employed during the course of the lesson. By periodically measuring how well each lesson adheres to the established criteria, teachers will be able to fine-tune their practice over time to improve student achievement.

This tool serves as a mechanism to design great educational experiences for students regardless of what they are learning. It is a seamless blend of curriculum, pedagogy, schedule, student autonomy, teacher collaboration and assessment. It provides a quantifiable measure of what are, essentially, qualitative elements that profoundly impact teaching and learning.
