Quite simply, using the T3 can amplify the effects of classroom observations to improve teaching.

For Mentors
​

Structured classroom observations and post-lesson discussions are important ways to foster pre-service teachers’ development.
Using a range of teaching tracker tools to observe followed by non-judgemental post lesson conversations can amplify growth.
Arranging observations by more than one observer can provide pre-service teachers with several perspectives.

You can also improve your focus on teaching and learning by using teaching tracker tools when you observe a lesson. Schools also support teacher growth by using use T3 for peer observations.
