Performance Evaluation: Measurement or Development?
According to Robert Marzano
Race to the Top is the driving force behind teacher performance evaluation
Evaluation that focuses on measurement is designed to rate teachers on their effectiveness – used as an accountability measure
Evaluation that focuses on development is designed to help teachers improve and develop – used as a growth measure
