The New Handbook of Teacher Evaluation
Assessing Elementary and Secondary School Teachers
- Jason Millman - Cornell University, USA
- Linda Darling-Hammond - School of Education, Stanford University, USA, Columbia University, New York, USA
December 1989 | 448 pages | Corwin
Now available in paper, this version is the first comprehensive look at the process of selecting, assessing and assisting teachers in nearly a decade. Since the publication of the first Handbook, the profession of teaching has witnessed dramatic change including a greater awareness of teacher accountability, an increase in teacher testing and the development of teaching incentives. At the same time the political, social and organizational factors affecting the performance and evaluation of teachers have been subjects of intensive scrutiny.
Reflecting these changes, the new Handbook contains 25 new chapters, and explores current practices, issues and controversies related to the evaluation of teachers at elementary and secondary levels.
