Domain 4 primarily covers a teacher's responsibilities outside of the classroom, and particularly after teaching lessons. One responsibility of teachers is to reflect on previous lessons and on the school year as a whole in order to make informed decisions about how to proceed. Another is to keep records of grades, lesson plans, and other relevant information and documents organized and up-to-date so that they are available whenever needed. Two elements of this domain focus on connections to the community, both with parents and with other educators in one's professional learning network. Growth and development is the emphasis of Domain 4, as well as professional conduct that exists within and extends beyond the classroom environment. These responsibilities are essential to becoming a teacher of impact.
