Evaluating Teacher Competence through the Use of Performance Assessment Tasks: An Overview.

Davey, Bruce

Journal of Personnel Evaluation in Education, v5 n2 p121-32 Oct 1991

Performance testing is discussed as a method for teacher evaluation.

Performance assessments, measuring knowledge and abilities in use, can help sharpen the definition of teacher competence. (SLD)
