Book excerpt: Educational leaders are struggling with the issue of academic reform as it pertains to accountability for student achievement. With increasing pressures to improve student achievement, many states have adopted value-added measures to monitor student growth and teacher effectiveness. This study undertook a quantitative approach to examine the relationship between teacher perceptions of value-added evaluations, teachers' three-year mean value-added scores, and teacher job satisfaction using One-Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVAs). The four major questions posed in this study are as follows: 1) What are selected TN teachers' perceptions of the TVAAS-based teacher evaluation system in terms of fairness, accuracy, understandability, and need for revision? 2) How do selected TN teachers' average self-reported scores on the TVAAS-based teacher evaluation system differ by demographic characteristics? 3) How do selected TN teachers' reported level of job satisfaction differ by demographic characteristics? 4) What relationships are observed between selected TN teachers' ratings of the quality of the TVAAS-based teacher evaluation system, their self-reported average scores on that teacher evaluation system, and their level of satisfaction with their jobs? There were 39 teachers from two rural middle schools in the mid-south that participated in the survey. Job satisfaction was measured and compared with their self-reported mean Tennessee Value-Added Assessment System (TVAAS) score. The analysis revealed a significant relationship between the self-reported three-year average and TVAAS scores and perception of the quality of TVAAS data, as well as a significant relationship between teachers' self-reported average TVAAS evaluation score and their average level of job satisfaction.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative study aimed to research the perspectives of four teachers who teach low-scoring populations of students traditionally. The research questions focused on job satisfaction, self-efficacy, and retention in education about Value-Added Model scores in their evaluations. The secondary purpose was for the teachers to recommend authentic assessment of student growth which is weighted 33% of teacher evaluations. I conducted a series of three open-ended interviews with each of the four participants. The interviews were designed to allow rich data to be collected. The significant findings have been discovered using the constant comparative method. The analysis revealed that the teacher's perceptions of VAM scores were not in their control, nor did the teachers understand how the score is calculated; however, it was a stress point in the teaching environment. The recommendations for alternative measurement of student achievement had a common thread of a baseline assessment and a learning gain assessment of the students the teachers directly taught. The emerging themes concluded that the evaluating administrator had more impact on job satisfaction and self-efficacy than VAM scores. The research questions drove the study, and the analysis discovered trends and emerging themes.
Download or read book Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Teacher Evaluation written by Morgaen L. Donaldson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of national interest in teacher evaluation, this book examines what we have learned about how and whether teacher evaluation holds teachers accountable and improves their practice. Drawing on literature in psychology, economics, and sociology, this multi-disciplinary and multi-perspectival book explores teacher evaluation’s intended goals of development and accountability, as well as its unintended consequences, especially as they relate to equity. Blending theory from diverse disciplines with decades of research, this book provides new insights into how teacher evaluation has played out in schools across the United States and offers recommendations for research, policy, and practice in the years to come. Insights include how to embed teacher evaluation in a larger culture of continuous learning; rethinking assumptions on accountability and development aims; and highlighting the importance of equity in the design, implementation, and outcomes of teacher evaluation. Every chapter concludes with practical recommendations informed by theory and research to guide policymakers, researchers, and district and school leaders as they seek to understand, design, and implement better teacher evaluation systems.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to determine if student growth as measured by value-added measure of fourth grade 2011-2012 reading test scores was correlated with teacher observation ratings on the Teach and Cultivate Learning Environment domains of the Teaching and Learning Framework Rubric. A second purpose of the study was to determine if student perceptions of their classroom by the Tripod survey for fourth grade reading teachers. These findings supported the importance of using multiple measures to evaluate the performance of teacher. experience as measured by the Tripod survey were correlated to teacher evaluation ratings as well. Archival test scores and Tripod survey results from fourth grade students and archival classroom observation ratings from 253 fourth grade reading teachers in 87 elementary schools in one district in the southern region of the United States were used as data. The theoretical framework used to guide the study was systems theory which posits that all components of an organization are interrelated, and a slight change in one variable may have an impact on others. Pearson Correlational analyses were conducted to determine if a significant relationship existed between variables. A significant positive correlation was found between overall teacher observation ratings on the Teach and Cultivate Learning Environment domains of the Teaching and Learning Framework Rubric and student growth as measured by the value-added measure of fourth grade 2011-2012 reading test score (r =.187, p

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Value-added is the most robust, statistically significant method for connecting teachers to students. In other words, value-added analysis links teachers to students and, for the very first time, allows educators to see the amount of growth they are facilitating with students. Built around the value-added analysis professional development work of Battelle for Kids, this book for district and school leaders prepares educators to understand and implement value-added analysis in order to ensure that all students are achieving and progressing. By providing a user-friendly, five-step implementation process along with success stories of schools, teachers, and students as well as strategies, samples, and tools, this book will equip educators to use value-added analysis to help accelerate student progress. It is written to inform readers about what value-added analysis is and to help them utilize value-added information in a classroom and/or school setting.
