This book was released on 2014 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This pilot project study explored the relationship between the newly created Educator Evaluation System by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education in Missouri and a change in the professional performance of teachers and leaders. In particular, it addressed whether the process articulated in the state's new model resulted in a positive change in an educator's performance ultimately leading to improvements in student learning. A detailed review of the state's model is provided along with the research that supports the need for each step in the process. The pilot project conducted is described and data are reviewed from the participating districts in the pilot. The pilot district data offered in this study demonstrates that a majority of those teachers and administrators who participated in the pilot and used the state's model showed some measure of growth in their professional performance. In fact, well over 90% of those teachers and administrators who participated in the pilot project experienced a positive change in their professional performance, regardless of the particular indicator on which they focused. While traditionally educator evaluation based determinations and ratings of performance primarily from observation data, the Missouri Educator Evaluation System draws from multiple sources. These multiple sources are categorized into three professional frames: commitment, and impact. The commitment frame considers the quality of the teacher in terms of their credentialing, preparation and other similar artifacts indicative of a high quality teacher. The frame considers the quality of the teaching and is gathered through the traditional approach of observation. The impact frame looks at outcome data or the results that occur. All three frames work interdependently to establish a measure of effectiveness. A positive change in an educator's professional performance, as demonstrated by an overwhelming number of teachers and administrators who participated in the pilot project study, requires support by evidence in all three frames. Specifically for teachers, and for some indicators for the administrator, the evidence from the impact frame includes student performance data. The results from this pilot project study demonstrated that a positive change in a teacher's professional performance is accompanied by a positive change in the learning of their students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This policy analysis is designed to increase the understanding of Missouri's Performance Based Teacher Evaluation Pilot (PBTE). This policy analysis intended to identify the original intent of the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education with regard to the Missouri PBTE system. The purpose of the study was to explain the development of PBTE and hear the perceptions of elected officials, leaders in state-level governance, and leaders of public schools with respect to the impact the PBTE will have on public education in Missouri. While much research exists on best practice strategies for teacher evaluation, there is a deficit of knowledge regarding how and why Missouri developed their PBTE. The theoretical framework used to conduct this qualitative case study was policy theory. Policy theory is a means to understand the complex web of interactions and processes involved in developing policy (Fowler, 2008). The concepts, which served as the foundation for the study, were policy analysis, human resource management, commitment, practice, impact, and evaluation systems. This study is significant in that it will add to the literature about performance based teacher evaluation.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: There were two major objectives achieved in conducting this study. The first major objective was to provide an updated description of the teacher evaluation process in public school systems in the State of Ohio by determining the current perceptions and attitudes of principals and teachers toward the evaluation of teachers. Specifically, the following aspects of the teacher evaluation process were described and compared for principals and teachers--- the structure of the evaluation process, the criteria of the evaluation, the uses of evaluative information, principals' and teachers' attitudes toward the evaluation process, and the strengths and weaknesses of the evaluation process. This study also provided and compared principals' and teachers' actual and ideal perceptions about criteria of the evaluation and uses of evaluative information. In addition, the evaluative criteria and uses of evaluative information that principals and teachers perceived need to be utilized more in the teacher evaluation process were identified. The perceptions of principals and teachers were found to be different for a majority of areas surveyed. The second major objective in conducting this study was to provide an exploratory, empirical testing of the relationship of five important elements of the teacher evaluation process (the utilization of evaluation conferences, the manner in which evaluative goals are established, the use of teacher self-evaluation, the extent of evaluator training, and the use of multiple evaluators and/ or multiple sources of evaluative information) to five areas of professional concern about the teacher evaluation process or perceived areas of weakness of the teacher evaluation process (the adequacy of teacher input provided by the evaluation process, the technical quality of the evaluation, the fairness of the evaluation process, confidence in the evaluation process, and the usefulness of the evaluation process in improving teacher performance). Specifically here, the perceptions of respondents in the categories utilized were examined separately for principals and teachers to ascertain the perceived relationship of these five elements of the teacher evaluation process to the areas of concern about the teacher evaluation process or perceived areas of weakness of the teacher evaluation process. Teachers were found to be very much in agreement with theoretical relationships investigated, while principals were in agreement to a more limited extent. The information gleaned from achieving these two major objectives of the study should prove useful to a variety of educational audiences.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine teachers' perceptions of change impacted by the Network for Educator Effectiveness teacher evaluation system as presented by the University of Missouri. The study gathered teachers' perceptions of the impact NEE had on their teaching, specifically noting changes in teaching practice. This information served as an evaluation of the program and will be used to guide its further development. The study was guided by the following research questions. What are teachers' perceptions of change impacted by the Network for Educator Effectiveness based on the framework presented by Kim Marshall? Specifically, what changes have been made as a result of the mini-observations, unit of instruction evaluation, professional development plan, and student survey data? Data for the study was collected through focus group interviews and surveys. The population included two small southwest school districts in Missouri that had implemented the NEE system. An interpretive analysis of data was done to make the following conclusions. The mini-observation piece has affected the most change in classroom instruction. The unit of instruction evaluation, professional development plan and student survey data have affected little change due to incomplete or improper implementation. It is recommended that the NEE system continue with further implementation to see a greater effect on change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of UChicago CCSR's ongoing study of Chicago Public Schools' new teacher evaluation system, this report looks at teacher and principal perceptions in the second year of implementation. It finds teachers and principals remain positive about the new evaluation system, though less so than in Year 1. This brief, a continuation of the work that began in Teacher Evaluation in Practice: Implementing Chicago's REACH Students, draws on survey data from more than 19,000 teachers and nearly 800 principals and assistant principals to measure their views of REACH (Recognizing Educators Advancing Chicago's Students). REACH replaced the previous checklist system, which rated nearly all teachers as excellent or superior and failed to provide much useful feedback for improving teacher practice.
