Educational Leaders' Perceptions about Ethical Practices in Student Evaluation
Johnson, Robert L.; Green, Susan K.; Kim, Do-Hong; Pope, Nakia S.
American Journal of Evaluation, v29 n4 p520-530 2008
"The Student Evaluation Standards" call for student evaluations to be ethical, fair, useful, feasible, and accurate. However, little is known about educators' perceptions about the ethics of student evaluation practices. This study was designed to examine the degree of agreement among administrators about ethical student evaluation practices. It describes the results from a Web-based survey of principals and principal candidates in which they read a brief scenario and indicated whether the student evaluation practice in the depiction was ethical or unethical. Results show diversity in educators' perceptions about the ethicality of student evaluation practices and indicate a need for continued dialog and professional training of practitioners in ethical conduct.
