Download or read book Communication Framework for Measuring Teacher Quality and Effectiveness written by Jane G. Coggshall and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teacher effectiveness is one of the many dimensions of teacher quality, and some argue that it is the most crucial dimension. The appropriate definition and measurement of teacher effectiveness are the subject of an important ongoing national conversation--as well as the source of some contention and a fair amount of confusion. To promote effective dialogue about the measurement of teacher quality and effectiveness, the National Comprehensive Center for Teacher Quality (NCCTQ) developed this communication framework. Its purpose is to facilitate communication about policies regarding teacher effectiveness by helping to build a shared understanding of the terminology used in the discussion. By presenting a brief overview of teacher quality and the various instruments that can be sued to collect evidence of its many facets, the framework intends to illuminate both the possibilities and the limitations of focusing on teacher effectiveness (as opposed to other dimensions of teacher quality) in education policy and practice. Appended are: (1) Definitions of Key Measurement Terms; (2) Communication Tools; (3) Resources That Provide Information on Standards for Teaching Quality; and (4) Key Resources from NCCTQ. (Contains 3 tables.).
Download or read book How Do Teachers Communicate written by Joseph L. McCaleb and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary task of the monograph is to describe and evaluate the conceptualizations of communication found in assessment practices. The first chapter contains a review and analysis of standardized measures and performance assessments of teachers' communication. Twelve communication categories emerge from an inspection of the performance assessments. The numerous meanings given to communication are elaborated by an examination of differences within each category. The second chapter focuses on theory and research. The literature on instructional communication is examined, and a model is developed with five critical skill areas. It is shown how these areas are used for five functions, or purposes, and in different modes or patterns of communicating. The final three chapters discuss limitations in current measures of communication. The perspective of the communication theorist and linguist is used to identify important dimensions of communication that have received little, if any, attention in the assessments. The claim that most performance assessments are grounded in research on teaching effectiveness is explored, and relationships between the assessments and the research are cited. Limitations of that research paradigm are identified and implications for communication from an information-processing model are discussed. (JD)

Book excerpt: Research consistently shows that teacher effectiveness is about engagement, interaction, questioning, positive atmosphere, high expectations and suitable challenge.

Richard Churches draws from a range of disciplines, such as psychology, NLP and neuroscience, to provide a practical compendium of communication expertise based on what highly effective teachers do. You'll find out how to use influential language patterns to support learning and positive behaviour; the secrets of body language and non-verbal communication; how to communicate to create the right emotional climate; effective questioning techniques; etc. Small changes to your current practice could lead to huge benefits in the classroom.
