Understanding Report Sections

An Elevate report is organized into a few clear sections. Here's what each one is for.

Observation Summary

A short overview of the lesson that sets the context for the rest of the report.

Strengths

What the teacher did well, grounded in specific evidence from the lesson.

Areas for Growth

Opportunities to develop, again tied to what happened, so feedback is concrete rather than vague.

Ways to Elevate the Lesson

Actionable recommendations — practical ideas the teacher could try to strengthen the lesson.

Reflection Questions

Open questions to guide a feedback conversation, written in an invitational style that encourages the teacher to reflect rather than feel judged.

Evaluator Notes

A private space for your own notes. Evaluator notes are for you — they're kept separate from the teacher-facing report.

Note: Every section starts from Elevate's suggestions, but you decide what goes in. Build the report you'd be proud to share — see Using the Report Builder.
