Marzano Focused Non-Classroom Instructional Support Personnel Evaluation Model (2017)
Developed by Robert J. Marzano and adapted by Dr. Beverly Carbaugh, this model applies the Marzano Focused framework specifically to non-classroom instructional support personnel - coaches, specialists, consultants, and other staff who support teaching and learning outside a direct classroom role. Published by Instructional Empowerment, Inc. (formerly Learning Sciences International), the 2017 edition uses the same five-level scale as other Marzano models and is in active use in states including Oklahoma, Florida, Michigan, New Jersey, Kansas, and New York.
Adopted in Oklahoma, Florida, Michigan, New Jersey, Kansas, and New York, with district-level use in additional states including Colorado, Texas, Washington, and Arizona.
