Following the recent major school reform of Race to the Top,
schools, teachers, and students are increasingly evaluated through
high-stakes achievement test scores. In six concise chapters,
Teacher and Student Evaluation explores the historical rise and
modern landscape of accountability in American education, and the
current models of teacher evaluation. The authors provide realistic
and useful suggestions for responding to current accountability
demands. The authors explore the methodological concerns and policy
implications of using value-added and observational measures to
make high-stakes decisions. After reaching the conclusion that
these contemporary evaluation practices are flawed, Alyson Lavigne
and Thomas Good offer possible solutions that inform current and
future teacher evaluation. This book is a valuable resource for
students of educational assessment as well as policy makers,
administrators, and teachers who are currently building
accountability plans. The book is written in an accessible but
authoritative fashion that practitioners, policymakers, and
scholars will find useful.
