This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents evaluation cases from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) context, investigating the various facets of evaluation in different parts of the MENA region and beyond. In 19 chapters, it explores cases from Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Sudan, Syria, the UAE, Turkey, Iran and Morocco. The book highlights the impact of evaluation on a range of stakeholders, arguing that it has repercussions at the individual, societal, economic, cultural and political levels, that it also has an ethical dimension, and that it is tailored to people’s needs, helping them to remain abreast of the effectiveness and efficiency of programs. Further, the book explores controversial issues concerning different evaluation themes, such as teacher and staff evaluation, assessment practices, text genre analysis evaluation, assessment of productive skills, textbook and ICT evaluation, evaluation of ELT certificates and programs, quality assurance, ESP needs analysis, assessment literacy, and dynamic assessment. It addresses key challenges, such as who the “right people” to implement evaluation are, and the appropriate use of evaluation results to avoid any misuse or harm to any stakeholder. In closing, the book calls for further research venues on the relevance of evaluation, testing and assessment in the MENA context and beyond.

Download or read book Components of Performance based Teacher Evaluation Systems Related to Teacher Growth written by Jamie Alan Argotsinger and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to conduct an in-depth investigation of the performance-based teacher evaluation model and its impact on facilitating teacher growth in one selected school district. The research design for this investigation was a mixed design case study, which utilized both quantitative and qualitative data. The site of the study was a school district in a suburb of a large Missouri city. Quantitative data were collected through the Teacher Evaluation Profile (TEP) questionnaire. The survey instrument was electronically distributed to two hundred ninety-two teachers. One hundred ninety-three teachers completed and returned the survey. Qualitative data were collected through interviews of building level principals, assistant principals and selected teachers. Supplemental data were also collected through the analysis of documents and artifacts. Many practices were found that were perceived by teachers and administrators to facilitate teacher growth in the selected school district. Among those were professional dialogue, collaboration, self-reflection, feedback, risk-taking and goal-oriented development plans. Components of the new PBTE model that were perceived by teachers to facilitate growth included the professional enrichment plan (PEP), self-reflection, and multiple unplanned observations. In addition to these components, the administrators of the district also perceived the portfolio component of the new model to facilitate teacher growth. The consistent implementation of the model across the district was an area that should be addressed by the district to ensure that the entire district may benefit from the intended goals of the evaluation process.
