Welcome to SDP's Exemplary Teaching Video Library
The Exemplary Teaching Video Library is a professional development tool comprised of curated videos showing concrete examples of great teaching and learning practices in our district. See the key below for descriptions of categories to help you find the best example, and guiding questions embedded in each post to help deepen your understanding of each observable technique. Enjoy learning from your colleagues!
Videos are categorized by Danielson domain and individual tags. Select a domain below to view videos within that domain. You can browse within the domain, or select a tag from the dropdown menu to select more more specific content (by grade level, content area, time of year, etc.)
The components in Domain 1 outline how a teacher organizes the content of what students are expected to learn, or how the teacher designs instruction. These include: demonstrating knowledge of content and pedagogy, demonstrating knowledge of students, setting instructional outcomes, demonstrating knowledge of resources, designing coherent instruction, and designing student assessments.
