Partly fits

LiteracyICoachpartial · 61

It’s designed for coaches to capture and submit walkthrough observations from a phone with real-time sync, but the listing doesn’t clearly center sharing feedback back to teachers over time.

Won’t cover: It focuses on coaches capturing and submitting observations rather than clearly documenting ongoing teacher feedback in a longitudinal teacher conversation view.

DREME Math Classroom Observerpartial · 59

It’s a classroom walkthrough tool that structures feedback sessions with app-guiding questions and tracks trends/goals, but it is targeted specifically at early math leaders and math-focused improvement goals.

Won’t cover: It’s geared toward early math walkthrough coaching, so it may not fit non-math walkthroughs or broader subject observations.

K-12 Observation Assistantpartial · 56

It captures classroom audio and produces time-stamped transcripts and organized coaching-oriented observation summaries. However, it doesn’t explicitly describe organizing feedback to share with teachers over time.

Won’t cover: It generates observation summaries for coaching, but it doesn’t clearly describe a teacher-facing, ongoing feedback history.
