Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Peer Feedback in the Classroom, National Board Certified Teacher Starr Sackstein explores the powerful role peer feedback can play in learning and teaching.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to the emerging need to develop teachers as professionals who evaluate their own work, this book presents the foundations of self-evaluation as well as self-evaluation models and tools that are likely to help educational practitioners to evaluate their own teaching, and thus raise the level of their professional functioning. The book is intended to serve several groups: student teachers whose socialization into the teaching profession should include the perception of self-evaluation as an inherent part of teaching; the student teachers' supervisors who are expected to help in developing the knowledge and skills that are needed for purposes of self-evaluation; and teachers, school principals, and university instructors in departments of teacher education, who are interested in teacher's growth and in the development of teaching as a profession.

Download or read book Teacher Evaluation to Enhance Professional Practice written by Charlotte Danielson and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2000-07-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teacher evaluation--a term that brings fear, anticipation, stress, anxiety, or even boredom to the hearts of teachers and administrators everywhere. How can we reinvent teacher evaluation so that it really makes a difference--so that everyone in school benefits from it, so that teachers and administrators learn from it, so that students succeed as a result of it? The bad news is that many schools and districts seem to be stuck in old ruts, involving The Observation, The Behavior Checklist, and The Conference. The good news is that many districts have paved the way for teacher evaluation to actually become professional development, by using a three-track evaluation system: * Track I, for beginning teachers, promotes growth and new learning through mentoring, frequent observations, and support systems. * Track II, for tenured teachers--that is, most teachers in the system--promotes professional learning experiences through self-assessment, goal setting, data collection, formative evaluations, study groups, action plans, and evaluation in which teachers play an active role. * Track III, for tenured teachers needing assistance, focuses on remediating difficulties and recommending further action. More good news: Through concrete examples, useful forms, and assessment tools, this book provides a clear roadmap to effective teacher evaluation systems that combine quality assurance with professional development for all teachers.

Book excerpt: How colleges and universities can live up to their ideals of diversity, and why inclusivity and excellence go hand in hand. Most colleges and universities embrace the ideals of diversity and inclusion, but many fall short, especially in the hiring, retention, and advancement of faculty who would more fully represent our diverse world—in particular women and people of color. In this book, Abigail Stewart and Virginia Valian argue that diversity and excellence go hand in hand and provide guidance for achieving both. Stewart and Valian, themselves senior academics, support their argument with comprehensive data from a range of disciplines. They show why merit is often overlooked; they offer statistics and examples of individual experiences of exclusion, such as being left out of crucial meetings; and they outline institutional practices that keep exclusion invisible, including reliance on proxies for excellence, such as prestige, that disadvantage outstanding candidates who are not members of the white male majority. Perhaps most important, Stewart and Valian provide practical advice for overcoming obstacles to inclusion. This advice is based on their experiences at their own universities, their consultations with faculty and administrators at many other institutions, and data on institutional change. Stewart and Valian offer recommendations for changing structures and practices so that people become successful in ways that benefit everyone. They describe better ways of searching for job candidates; evaluating candidates for hiring, tenure, and promotion; helping faculty succeed; and broadening rewards and recognition.

Download or read book Veteran Teachers' Experiences with Peer Assistance and Review written by Felissa Luque and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently, there has been a growing interest in the importance of having effective teachers in every classroom. While decades of past research debated factors that affect student achievement, it is now generally common knowledge that teacher quality is the strongest predictor of student success. It would seem, therefore, that further investigations are needed to understand more about strategies to retrain, support, and improve the quality of ineffective teachers. This is especially important for veteran teachers who may have been teaching ineffectively for several years. This study examined how a Peer Assistance and Review (PAR) program in a large urban district provides the conditions for teacher growth and self-efficacy among veteran teachers who have received a below-standard performance evaluation. This qualitative research utilized case study methodology and a purposeful sample of five veteran Participating Teachers (PTs) from elementary and secondary schools, the two Consulting Teachers (CTs) who worked with the PTs in this study, two PAR administrators who oversee the organization of the program, and two members of the PAR panel, which oversees PAR policy and implementation. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, a focus group, and a document review of the program's pamphlets, flyers and website. The conceptual framework for the study was Bandura's four components of self-efficacy: mastery experiences (performance accomplishments), vicarious experiences (observed experiences), social persuasion (performance feedback), and physiological factors (attitude and motivation). The main findings were that PTs' self-efficacy was influenced by the four sources of self-efficacy; however, some components were more prevalent and effective in increasing self-efficacy than others. Furthermore, there are constraints on opportunities for teacher self-efficacy that are built into the structure and operations of the PAR program, as well as district policy. For example, PAR's observation cycle, which involves frequent PT observations followed by extensive feedback, provides the opportunity for PTs to have multiple opportunities for verbal persuasion by a mentor that they trust and respect. Additionally, these observation cycles help PTs to build mastery by having multiple opportunities to practice implementation of new teaching strategies while being coached by their CT. On the other hand, the program does not allow PTs to observe model teaches so they are lacking the opportunity for vicarious experiences. Other findings revealed that the parallel processes of PAR and the district's teacher evaluation system may be counterproductive to growth in PT self-efficacy. Insights from this study could be helpful for other PAR programs with similar demographics, as well as educational leaders who are interested in improving veteran teacher self-efficacy and teacher quality. This study also sheds light on Bandura's framework as it shows how the sources of self-efficacy influenced veteran teachers with prior unsuccessful teaching evaluations. Recommendations for policy and practice include ensuring that PTs have opportunities to observe either demonstration lessons by their consulting teacher or other effective teachers on a regular basis increasing the length of time that a PAR PT works with their CT to at least two years; and suspending the official evaluation process for the PT during the time that the CT is working with their PT.
