Blended Learning Meets T-TESS: An Interactive Guide for K-12 Teachers on Aligning the Station Rotation Model with the T-TESS Evaluation Rubric

Thursday July 30, 2026 10:50am - 11:50am CDT

Dekaney HS

Limited Capacity seats available

Are you ready to transform your classroom rotation model from a teacher-led schedule into a self-driven student engine? Designed for K-12 educators, this professional development session untangles the roadmap to true student autonomy using the Texas Teacher Evaluation and Support System (T-TESS) and the Blended Learning Grant Program frameworks.
In this interactive workshop, we will trace the complete instructional arc of a successful station rotation model across three distinct phases:
Phase 1: Establish the Baseline – Master the structural essentials by organizing physical learning zones, deploying clear visual agendas, and establishing rock-solid station routines aligned with High-Quality Instructional Materials (HQIM).
Phase 2: Target & Align – Elevate your practice by using real-time data dashboards to drive targeted small-group intervention, embed peer-to-peer troubleshooting, and shift student tracking from simple completion to standards mastery.
Phase 3: Student Ownership – Reach the ultimate student-centered destination where learners independently navigate personalized "Must Do/May Do" pathways, analyze their own data binders, and actively steer their own next steps.
Leave this session with concrete "coaching next moves," practical tracking routines, and actionable strategies to confidently elevate your T-TESS dimensions (including 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, and 3.1) from teacher-managed to student-owned. Turn the rotation wheel and watch your students take the driver's seat!
