Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, changes to federal and state accountability policy and related teacher evaluation systems occurred in the United States with minimal input from two of the largest groups of stakeholders impacted: principals and teachers. For this case study, I explored principals' and teachers' perceptions of their experiences with the Texas Teacher Evaluation and Support System (T-TESS), specifically the role of leadership practices and use of the evaluation rubric as a policy tool within an evaluation process. The study took place at one elementary school. Teachers perceived the evaluation process as carrying out its intended purpose of improving instruction through professional growth. Principals and teachers viewed the teacher evaluation system and the teacher evaluation rubric, a policy tool designed to facilitate and inform the processes and practices used to improve instruction in their districts and schools, as effective. Important district-level decisions also impacted how principals and teachers perceived the T-TESS. District-level decisions included policy related to frequency of required observations, methods of including student performance data, decisions related whether to issue a single rating or multiple ratings, and evaluation of specialized teachers. School-based leadership behaviors and practices were also found to influence teachers' perceptions related to the effectiveness of teacher evaluation which included a focus on school culture, leadership style employed, evaluation training, and use of the evaluation rubric. The findings of this study have implications for policy decisions, district-leadership decisions, and school-based leadership practice related to teacher evaluation, both in Texas as well as the nation.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative research study was to explore teachers' perceptions of the Marzano Teacher Evaluation Model (MTEM). The study focused on whether teachers' perceptions of the MTEM had resulted in changes in the teaching practice and that these changes ultimately led to improved teaching outcomes. This study was conducted in two school districts in central Pennsylvania and one school district in south central Florida that used MTEM as the evaluation tool. Results from the study were gathered using an online survey that included a Likert scale, multiple-choice, and open-ended questions. Seventy-two teacher participants participated in the survey part of the study. This study revealed that most teachers felt the MTEM system had a positive impact on the instructional strategies used within the classroom. The subjects reported an increase in the use and availability of specific research-based instructional strategies. Teachers shared that the MTEM had made them reflect on their instructional practices and focus on implementing research-based instructional strategies in the classroom. The subjects perceived an increase in student learning within the classroom. Feedback from the evaluation process helped educators to reflect on their teaching pedagogy. Regarding teacher perceptions of the overall process of the MTEM, a majority of teachers shared that the overall process had a positive effect on the observation process. Teachers felt that the feedback received was focused, clear, and specific in helping them grow as educators. Finally, teachers agreed that the MTEM had a positive impact on student learning.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption of online education has expanded access to education in the United States. This study aimed to provide evidence of online K-12 schools' impact on educational practice by examining the evaluation tools used to appraise K-12 online educators' instructional practices. The teachers' perceptions were also investigated to determine the teachers' evaluation process's effectiveness and usefulness. A modified version of the Framework for Teaching survey was administered to 48 certified K-12 online teachers and administrators from three cyber schools in Pennsylvania. Descriptive and inferential statistics were analyzed using JASP software. Most participants (80%) reported an understanding on how the evaluation model was utilized in their school. Teachers had a positive perception of the evaluation process, the instrument, and their support. This study proves that the teachers' evaluation tools used by K-12 online schools can positively impact teachers' professional development and demonstrate value to inform educational practice.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: Teacher evaluations can be a tool for increasing teacher effectiveness and accountability if it is determined how evaluations can be best used. According to current literature, this is not the case. It is more pertinent than ever that administrators use evaluations to strengthen marginal teachers and further develop skills of teachers who are already proficient. However, few studies exist pertaining to teacher and administrator perceptions of teacher evaluation effectiveness and even fewer focus Georgia teacher evaluations. The purpose of this descriptive study was to investigate perceptions of the teacher evaluation process held by teachers and administrators in southeast Georgia so that improvements to the teacher evaluation process could be considered. Survey data were collected (277 teachers and 12 administrators) representing three rural school districts in southeast Georgia. Data collection tools included the Teacher Evaluation Profile for Teachers and Administrators. Both included questions that participants rated based on a Likert-type scale. In addition to the Likert-types questions, one-open ended question was included that allowed teachers and administrators to reflect upon the current process for teacher evaluation used in their systems. Findings from both the Likert-type response questions and the open-ended question were analyzed with comparative differences between the survey and the open-iiended response data. Data were analyzed by position (teacher and administrator). Responses on the survey questions were positive from both teachers and administrators. A large number of teachers (43.73%) indicated that the evaluation process in their system was average and that these evaluations had a strong impact on professional practices (20.15%). According to teachers, the strongest attribute of the evaluation process was that the feedback focused on the standards whereas administrators indicated that the timing of the feedback was the greatest attribute of the evaluation process. In addition, administrators believed that teacher evaluations have the greatest impact on student learning. This study demonstrated that both teachers and administrators are reasonably satisfied with the teacher evaluation process. This study resulted in limited findings that would indicate a complete overhaul of the evaluation process, but it suggests that minor changes could be made to enhance the overall usefulness of teacher evaluations.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to evaluate teachers accurately is indispensable for both the development of effective teachers and for student achievement. In this era of accountability, it is important school districts develop evaluation systems that comply with the propriety, utility, feasibility, and accuracy standards of the Joint Committee on Standards for Educational Evaluations. This study focused on a process evaluation of a new teacher evaluation program. While previous studies have been conducted from the teachers or the evaluators perspectives, this study examined both perspectives. More than 1,500 teachers and 41 principals were invited to complete an online instrument modified from surveys conducted by Hopkins and Stronge. Of concern to the teachers and principals was the accuracy of the new evaluation program, they did not see the value and validity of using SLOs to improve teaching practices to increase learning, and teachers slightly favored using the professional practices component more than the SLO component of the evaluation. Using SLO data in teacher evaluation is an unknown dynamic for teachers; therefore, school administrators need to understand how teachers perceive this change as it relates to teacher support of the new evaluation process. If districts are to safeguard the fidelity, implementation, and sustainability of new evaluation programs for teachers, districts must acknowledge the influence teacher perceptions have on endorsing implementation efforts toward change. Teachers' perceptions toward adjusting instructional practices to align with the standards and criteria of new evaluation programs can either hinder or ensure program implementation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides a comprehensive and informative overview of the current state of research about student perceptions of and student feedback on teaching. After presentation of a new student feedback process model, evidence concerning the validity and reliability of student perceptions of teaching quality is discussed. This is followed by an overview of empirical research on the effects of student feedback on teachers and instruction in different contexts, as well as on factors promoting the successful implementation of feedback in schools. In summary, the findings emphasize that student perceptions of teaching quality can be a valid and reliable source of feedback for teachers. The effectiveness of student feedback on teaching is significantly related to its use in formative settings and to a positive feedback culture within schools. In addition, it is argued that the effectiveness of student feedback depends very much on the support for teachers when making use of the feedback. As this literature review impressively documents, teachers in their work - and ultimately students in their learning - can benefit substantially from student feedback on teaching in schools. “This book reviews what we know about student feedback to teachers. It is detailed and it is a pleasure to read. To have these chapters in one place – and from those most up to date with the research literature and doing the research - is a gift.” John Hattie

This book was released on 2016 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed methods study investigated how high school teachers born between the years 1982 and 1994 perceived the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an evaluation tool. Using Strauss and Howe's (1991) Generational Theory as a framework, the study examined what themes Millennial high school teachers used to describe the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an evaluation tool, their perceived strengths and weaknesses of the Danielson Framework for Teaching, whether Millennial high school teachers viewed the Danielson Framework for Teaching as a valid and reliable evaluation instrument, how their experiential knowledge influenced their views of the Danielson Framework for Teaching, and how they perceived previous generations' views about the Danielson Framework for Teaching as being similar or different from their own views. The study was conducted using a multi-stage approach. First, participants completed a 29-item survey. Next, if any survey participants were interested in being contacted to participate in an individual in-person or phone interview, they could provide their contact information to be contacted by the researcher. The participants consisted of 86 survey participants from the state of Illinois, who were between the ages of 21 and 34 years old, represented various geographic locations and school settings, and had a variety of teaching experiences, content areas, teacher preparation programs completed. The 13 interview participants selected from the survey respondents also represented diverse school settings, teaching experiences, and teacher preparation programs. The quantitative survey results of this study were supported by the qualitative data collected from the individual interviews. The findings of this study showed that Millennial high school teachers viewed the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an evaluation tool positively; however, they were critical of the human element involved in the evaluation process and were skeptical of the validity and reliability of the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an evaluation tool. The findings also demonstrated that Millennial high school teachers who had more experience with the Danielson Framework for Teaching viewed it more favorably. Finally, Millennial high school teachers had mixed views regarding how their colleagues from different generations viewed the Danielson Framework for Teaching as an evaluation tool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teacher evaluation systems have served to remove ineffective teachers and support teacher professional development. Even with changes in evaluation systems that incorporated student-growth measures, teacher evaluation systems are more likely to serve for teacher development than teacher removal. This qualitative study focused on teacher perceptions of one school's evaluation components in supporting teacher professional growth and student learning. The study broke the teachers into career level experience groups of novice, early career, and experienced. The required district/state evaluation components of goal conferences, classroom observations, and student-growth measures were selected for the study. The study also looked at the school practice of teacher-reflection in the evaluation system. Twenty-one teachers participated in focus group interviews designed to understand how teachers use goal-setting conferences, classroom observations, student-growth measures, and teacher reflection. Focus groups were designed to protect teacher anonymity and reduce bias in the study. The results revealed differences in how teachers value the evaluation components based on the teacher's experience level. At times teachers questioned the value of the evaluation system, goal meetings, classroom observations, and student-growth measures, yet teachers understood the need for the components in evaluations. Teachers requested more frequent observations and opportunities to review goals and professional practices. They also wanted fidelity in the evaluator the tools for the evaluation. Perceptual data identified teacher reflection emerged as the most influential component in improving teacher practices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For as long as there have been teachers, there have been efforts to determine the most constructive way to evaluate teacher effectiveness. Research has shown that traditional administrator evaluations do little to improve struggling teachers and that most teachers nationwide are able to earn satisfactory ratings even when they are not performing in a satisfactory manner. This study aims to determine whether using student perception feedback as part of a comprehensive teacher evaluation process would lead to improved practice and targeted professional development. The following questions were investigated in this research: 1. Does student perception feedback drive teachers to reflect and improve their practice; 1a. How do teachers perceive student feedback for personal growth and administrative evaluation; 1b. Do teachers' perceptions of student feedback change after receiving the data; and 1c. Does student feedback help teachers with targeted goal setting? For the purposes of this study, student perception feedback refers to survey results collected from students regarding teacher practices and classroom environments.Study participants agreed to allow their students to provide feedback using a student perception survey. Before and after receiving the data from their students, participants answered survey items about how they perceive the use of student perception data, and at the end of the study, each participant took part in an interview. Researchers studied the pre- and post-surveys to determine whether teacher perceptions changed once they received the data from their students, and interview responses were analyzed to uncover themes and answer the overarching question: Does student perception feedback drive teachers to reflect and improve their practice? The study research shows that teachers were reflective when presented with their students' feedback, and the majority of participants were willing to make instructional changes based on the data, even when they did not necessarily agree with their students' responses. Implications from the study reveal that increasing teacher knowledge and understanding of the reliability and validity of student perception feedback instruments is an important step in order to gain teacher confidence and trust in this process.
