CLASS Classroom Observer; Army

Overview

Teachstone Overview Teachstone® was founded in 2008 to deliver the Classroom Assessment Scoring System® (CLASS®) nationwide and around the globe. The CLASS observation tool measures the interactions between teachers and children, which drive learning and lifelong achievement. Teachstone helps organizations conduct classroom observations and provides professional development so that teachers improve and children learn more. Our online subscription service, my Teachstone, combines observation data with a robust library of CLASS resources and professional development.

At Teachstone, everything we do is about improving the ways teachers interact with their students. We train coaches and observers, build and deliver online support programs, and design professional development – all grounded in one proven fact: the interactions teachers have with students have a lasting impact on their academic and developmental success. By helping educators describe, measure, and improve their interactions and relationships with students, Teachstone is transforming education nationwide, one interaction at a time.

We invite you to join Teachstone, the interaction company.
