Book excerpt: Since the passage of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001, the demand for accountability in schools across America has put a spotlight on teacher quality. As part of the focus on school improvement, one area that is sometimes overlooked is teacher evaluation (Varlas, 2009). Within the research, studies can be found that show a relationship between school climate and the effectiveness of teacher evaluation systems (King, 2003: Stronge, 2006; Wilson & Natriello, 1987). It has also been found that effective teacher evaluation can improve school climate (Colby, Bradshaw, & Joyner, 2002). Learning how the overall climate of a school relates to the evaluation process could be beneficial to school administrators and teachers alike. The purpose of this study was to investigate elementary school teachers' perceptions of their school climate and determine if a relationship existed between those perceptions and the perceptions they have of their formative and summative evaluations. This quantitative study was conducted in 35 public elementary schools within a southeast urban area of Houston, Texas. The Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire for Elementary Schools (Hoy, Tarter, & Kottkamp, 1991) was administered to the schools' teaching staff to determine teacher perceptions of their school climate. Additionally, the Teacher Evaluation Profile (Stiggins & Duke, 1988) was given to determine the perceptions of teachers related to their most recent evaluation experiences. Data from the 746 participating teachers was analyzed using a Spearman Rank Correlation Coefficient and Partial Least Squares (PLS) Modeling to assess the relationship between school climate and the teachers perceptions of evaluation effectiveness. The findings indicated that correlations of scores for the various subtests on the Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire Elementary version (OCDQ-RE) with the scores for the various subtests on the Teacher Evaluation Profile (TEP) existed in the direction that supports the stated hypotheses. The six PLS path models defined in this study have practical and/or theoretical significance to predict the relationships between elementary school climate and teacher perceptions regarding evaluation. By understanding the relationship between school climate and teacher evaluation, principals will be better equipped to improve their schools and meet the challenges of NCLB.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent changes in the policy environment have led states and districts in the Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) Northeast & Islands Region to increase the rigor of their teacher evaluation systems by including more frequent observations or student test score data. States and districts nationwide began reforming their evaluation systems as early as 2006 and were further spurred to action by federal programs such as the Teacher Incentive Fund and the 2009 Race to the Top grant program. This study examined associations between teachers' perceptions of school professional climate and their satisfaction with the evaluation process. It used the responses of a nationally representative sample of teachers from four linked questionnaires from the National Center for Education Statistics 2011/12 Schools and Staffing Survey and 2012/13 Teacher Follow-up Survey. Key findings are: (1) Most teachers reported being satisfied with the evaluation process: 79 percent reported strongly agreeing or somewhat agreeing that they were satisfied with the teacher evaluation process in the previous year; (2) Teachers reported positive perceptions of their principal's leadership but perceived themselves to have little influence over school policies. On average, teachers somewhat agreed that their principal provides positive leadership (mean of 3.1 on a scale of 1, strongly disagree, to 4, strongly agree) but that they had minor influence over school policies (mean of 2.2 on a scale of 1, no influence, to 4, great deal of influence); (3) Of the two concepts used to measure school professional climate--principal leadership and teacher influence--only principal leadership was associated with teachers' satisfaction with the evaluation process. Teachers with more positive perceptions of their principal's leadership were more likely to be satisfied with the evaluation process; (4) Teachers who were rated at the highest level on their evaluation in 2011/12 expressed more satisfaction with the evaluation process that year than teachers who were rated at lower levels; and (5) Teachers whose evaluation process included student test scores were 2.5 times less likely to be satisfied with the evaluation process than teachers whose evaluation process did not include student test scores. The following are appended: (1) Literature review; (2) Data sources and study methods; and (3) Supplementary tables and analyses.

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

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quantitative research study was designed to investigate the relationship between school climate and student achievement. Using survey methods, data were collected using the Organizational Climate Descriptive Questionnaire Revised for Elementary Schools (OCDQ-RE) from 599 teachers in 33 schools located within the Region VII Education Service Center area. Quantitative data were analyzed using the Pearson r correlational analysis method and descriptive statistics to determine the relationship between teachers' perceptions of school climate and student achievement. Findings revealed a moderate relationship between teachers' perceptions of teacher openness when compared to standardized test scores and a small association among teachers' perceptions of principal openness and standardized test scores. By examining the overall campus climate evidence was found that campuses having an open or engaged climate typically had a higher percent of students meeting the TAKS standard when compared to campuses with a closed or disengaged climate.
