Itβs a form of engagement. It doesnβt have to be one or the other. If the teacher uses a tool like M2 they are probably creative and thinking outside the box. Getting feedback especially creating the culture at a young age is a good thing.

We canβt always be in the room - But M2 can.
M2 quietly collects bite-sized feedback on key teaching practices - engagement, questioning, & pacing, without requiring a full, formal observation.
It's an extra set of eyes, observing so teachers can review on their own time. #EduSky
Make a splash this back to school season with our August Journal.Β
