WHAT IT IS
A Survey Designed for Growth, Not Evaluation
The CIALE Teacher Methods Survey supports reflection on strengths, development needs, and the relationship between a school's educational commitments and everyday classroom practice. Findings provide a starting point for focused conversations, professional learning, and action planning.
​
Use survey findings alongside classroom observations, teacher reflection, student work, and other evidence. Reported practices help guide inquiry, they do not, by themselves, verify instructional quality or student outcomes.
THE FRAMEWORK
Four Areas of Educational Practice
C
Curriculum Engagement
Consider how teaching engages the intended curriculum and supports the school's learning goals.
I
Instructional Strategies
Reflect on the teaching methods used to engage learners and support their development.
A
Assessment Authenticity
Examine how assessment connects with meaningful learning and informs instructional decisions.
LE
Learning Environment
Consider the conditions, relationships, and routines that support student learning.
