Kim, Mi Song – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2022
Teacher design work has gained increasing attention by re-conceptualizing teachers as designers rather than curriculum deliverers. However, assessing teacher design work can be challenging given that there are very few research tools to assess teacher design knowledge (TDK) competencies. To fill that gap, this study proposes a survey that assesses…

Evaluating Professional Knowledge for Teaching Environmental Issues in Vietnamese Elementary Schools
Lam-Huu-Phuoc Nguyen; Chin-Fei Huang – Journal of Baltic Science Education, 2024
The significance of environmental education has become more evident, driven by global concerns surrounding climate change. In Vietnam, a country facing significant environmental challenges, developing environmental knowledge of elementary school teachers is crucial. This study aimed to validate a questionnaire for assessing professional knowledge…

Berliner, David C. – Education Policy Analysis Archives, 2018
The Scylla and Charybdis in this discussion of teacher evaluation are standardized achievement test data on the one hand, and classroom observational systems on the other. These are the two most common methods used to judge teachers' competency. Both have serious flaws: the former primarily with validity, the latter primarily with reliability. At…

Castellano, Katherine E.; McCaffrey, Daniel F. – Educational Measurement: Issues and Practice, 2017
Mean or median student growth percentiles (MGPs) are a popular measure of educator performance, but they lack rigorous evaluation. This study investigates the error in MGP due to test score measurement error (ME). Using analytic derivations, we find that errors in the commonly used MGP are correlated with average prior latent achievement: Teachers…

Dockterman, Daniel Milo – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Student surveys have gained prominence in recent years as a way to give students a voice in their learning process, and teacher self-reports have always been an effective instrument for revealing the planning, intentions, and expectations behind a given lesson. Though student and teacher surveys are widely used, extant research in education has…

Hood, Lisa; Rodriguez, Sarai Coba; Rosa, Pamela Reimer; Hunt, Erika Lee – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2016
Teacher-evaluation has become a key measure for determining teacher effectiveness and the examination of the evaluation process at early childhood levels is a critical area of study. Responding to federal policies, many states have reformed their teacher evaluation systems. One of the more recent developments in state policy is the inclusion of…

Martínez, José Felipe; Schweig, Jonathan; Goldschmidt, Pete – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2016
A key question facing teacher evaluation systems is how to combine multiple measures of complex constructs into composite indicators of performance. We use data from the Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) study to investigate the measurement properties of composite indicators obtained under various conjunctive, disjunctive (or complementary),…

Ronfeldt, Matthew; Campbell, Shanyce L. – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2016
Despite growing calls for more accountability of teacher education programs (TEPs), there is little consensus about how to evaluate them. This study investigates the potential for using observational ratings of program completers to evaluate TEPs. Drawing on statewide data on almost 9,500 program completers, representing 44 providers (183…

Amrein-Beardsley, Audrey; Holloway-Libell, Jessica; Cirell, Anna Montana; Hays, Alice; Chapman, Kathryn – Practical Assessment, Research & Evaluation, 2015
There is something incalculable about teacher expertise and whether it can be observed, detected, quantified, and as per current educational policies, used as an accountability tool to hold America's public school teachers accountable for that which they do (or do not do well). In this commentary, authors (all of whom are former public school…

Gargani, John; Strong, Michael – Journal of Teacher Education, 2015
In Gargani and Strong (2014), we describe The Rapid Assessment of Teacher Effectiveness (RATE), a new teacher evaluation instrument. Our account of the validation research associated with RATE inspired a review by Good and Lavigne (2015). Here, we reply to the main points of their review. We elaborate on the validity, reliability, theoretical…
