AI-powered teacher evaluations
for Oregon educators.

Yes — the Oregon Model Core Teaching Standards are built in natively. All four domains and all ten standards are loaded into the tool, along with the four-level rating scale Oregon actually uses (Does Not Meet, Developing, Proficient, Exemplary). EvalScribe maps observation evidence to the relevant Oregon standards and suggests rubric-aligned ratings and comments.

The framework is maintained by the Oregon Department of Education (ODE). Primary sources:

EvalScribe is focused on the observation-based portion of Oregon evaluation — the framework-aligned documentation piece that eats the most evaluator time. Oregon's Student Learning and Growth goals are a separate process: teacher-driven, based on locally-selected measures determined collaboratively between teachers and administrators, tracked against actual student data across the school year, and scored per your district's chosen methodology under ODE's SLG Goal Quality Review Checklist. The SLG goal-setting, tracking, and scoring process stays outside the tool. What EvalScribe handles is the observation evidence to rubric-aligned narrative translation across the ten Model Core Teaching Standards.

Yes. Oregon's Framework requires every district to design its own evaluation and support system through a collaborative process between teachers and administrators, so observation cadence, measures for Student Learning and Growth, and summative scoring methods vary from one district to the next. What stays constant across districts is the underlying Oregon Model Core Teaching Standards — the ten standards across four domains, the four-level rating scale. EvalScribe handles the standards-aligned documentation for observation write-ups regardless of the specific system your district uses.

No. EvalScribe drafts evidence-mapped evaluations and suggested performance-level ratings. The evaluator reviews, edits, and finalizes every document. The professional judgment stays with you — EvalScribe just removes the typing.

Oregon's Model Core Teaching Standards are Oregon's adoption of the InTASC (Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium) Model Core Teaching Standards developed by the Council of Chief State School Officers. The four-domain, ten-standard structure comes directly from the InTASC framework. Oregon adds its own emphases — culturally responsive teaching, community context, cross-disciplinary connections, and Student Learning and Growth goals — that shape how the standards apply in practice for Oregon evaluators.

Yes, fully. Every comment, every rating, and every piece of mapped evidence inside a draft evaluation can be edited before you export the final PDF or paste content into your district's evaluation management system.

Yes. Whatever your district's evaluation and support system calls the observation type — walkthroughs, formative observations, formal announced or unannounced observations, peer observations — EvalScribe handles them through the same capture-and-draft pipeline. Documentation across observation types stays consistent throughout the year.

Your notes are processed transiently on Microsoft Azure and are not retained on EvalScribe's servers. Your evaluation records sit locally on your device under a local-first architecture. Your data is never used to train public AI models. For more detail, see our Privacy Policy.

Generic AI tools have no built-in understanding of the Oregon Model Core Teaching Standards. They invent standard numbers, produce vague comments, and miss the Proficient-to-Exemplary distinction Oregon actually requires — where cultural responsiveness becomes an active instructional asset and students take ownership of their learning. EvalScribe is built around the actual ten Oregon standards and the district-flexibility workflow that surrounds them.

Yes. Individual evaluators can download EvalScribe from the Apple App Store on both iOS and macOS, with a free trial that includes three evaluations.

Yes. School-wide licensing starts at three or more evaluators ($90/user/year), and district-wide licensing is $80/admin/year. When you order, EvalScribe issues a unique access code that you distribute to your evaluators — no separate provisioning required. Email [email protected] to get started.

EvalScribe ships with frameworks from all 50 states and Washington D.C., plus general models such as Danielson, Marzano, Stronge, CEL 5D+, NIET, and Kim Marshall. The complete list is available at evalscribe.com/frameworks.
