The Personnel Evaluation Standards: How to Assess Systems for Evaluating Educators

The Personnel Evaluation Standards heralds a breakthrough in the increasingly important and complex area of personnel evaluation, challenging current practices. The volume presents in detail a set of 21 standards for assessing or developing systems for evaluating educational personnel, including teachers, professors, administrators and counsellors. In addition to discussing the standards themselves, the volume considers key concepts related to each standard, guidelines for carrying it out, common mistakes to be avoided and illustrative cases of its application. Later sections of the book present approaches to applying the standards.
