Toward More Effective Teacher Evaluation: Lessons from Naturalistic Inquiry.
Wood, Carolyn J.
NASSP Bulletin, v76 n542 p52-59 Mar 1992
Evaluators using a naturalistic orientation observe a teacher's performance within the context of other lessons and interactions, view teacher observation and evaluation as processes rather than outcomes, and see events from the teacher's perspective. Principals can increase objectivity by recognizing the effects of their attitudes and experiences on the evaluation process. (eight references) (MLH)
