The self-evaluation process allows individuals to reflect on their performance throughout the year, identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
- From the Tasks menu, navigate to the Self-Reflection task (for some, it may be called Self-Assessment or Self-Evaluation). NOTE: Whether the task is required and the due date are also posted here.
- Click Open Evaluation in the top right.
- Adjust your view using the Configuration Options Gear in the top right.

- If the evaluatee is on Focused for the year, either the evaluator or the evaluatee will need to mark all criteria, including the student growth criterion, as the focus. Click the Corner asterisk icon in the far left criteria list to designate a criterion as Focused. It will turn from gray to blue.
- Criteria may be marked with a red indicator and must be completed as required. This is set up along with the District's Position Level (e.g., Teacher-Focused, Teacher-Comprehensive, etc.).
- Criteria designated as the student growth goal will be labeled with an orange indicator.
- Click on a criterion to view its description and performance levels, then rate yourself based on the overall criterion and sub-criterion. Only one performance level can be selected per criterion.
- Click the Configuration Options Gear at the top right and choose Evaluated Position Reference to view the Washington State Approved Framework rubric.
- As you rate yourself, the boxes correspond with specific colors in the far left Criteria List.
- Green: Distinguished (4)
- Blue: Proficient (3)
- Yellow: Basic (2)
- Red: Unsatisfactory (1)
- Add Notes to the notes box below the performance ratings list.
- Click the checkmark in the top right corner to Save. If you navigate away from notes without saving, you will receive a warning to help avoid text entry loss.
- NOTE: The paper icon in the far left criteria list will turn gray to blue when notes are present.
- Click the Configuration Options Gear in the top right and choose one of the following:
- Mark Complete? Once this box has been checked, the self-reflection becomes read-only. Uncheck the box at any time to return to edit mode.
- Share with Evaluator?: Check the box to share your self-evaluation. An Email will be sent to your Evaluator. To stop sharing, uncheck the box at any time. An email will again be sent to the Evaluator.
- Allow Commentary: This will allow the evaluator to add commentary. If the task still needs to be shared, checking the 'Allow commentary' checkbox will prompt for confirmation: 'This task still needs to be shared.' Allowing Commentary will also share the whole task. Click Yes, Continue.

- Click the Airplane icon in the upper right corner to notify the Evaluator/Evaluatee of changes. It will ask for confirmation if the task still needs to be shared. This task has not been shared yet. Notifying the Evaluator/Evaluatee of changes will also share the whole task.
- Click the “X” in the upper right corner to close the popover window. The task will show that it has been completed and shared.
- Once the self-assessment is complete, decide whether to share it with your evaluator. Click the airplane icon to share it. Once that step is complete, you can then mark it as such. Your evaluator will receive an email notifying them that the task has been completed.
