This study examines the results of the first phase of a multi-year programme to integrate the use of video to support induction coaches in a suburban school district. Seven coaches participated in a video club in which they analysed videos of both their coaching conversations and mentees' classrooms. A typological analysis of interview and video…

How do teachers perceive and experience the impact of evaluation feedback across various domains of their work? This study investigates whether there are qualitatively distinct groups of teachers in the United States based on teacher perceived impact of evaluation feedback using the 2013 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2013).…

Field experiences provide opportunities for early childhood and early childhood special education (EC/ECSE) educators to implement effective practices in learning settings, and are, therefore, a vital part of EC/ECSE teacher preparation. In this article, we describe field placement models from four universities in the United States: The Bridge…

Deep neural networks are increasingly employed to model classroom dialogue and provide teachers with prompt and valuable feedback on their teaching practices. However, these deep learning models often have intricate structures with numerous unknown parameters, functioning as black boxes. The lack of clear explanations regarding their classroom…

In the realm of learning, teaching and learning occur simultaneously, with continuous learning happening through the act of teaching. This study, attributed to Phil Collins, underscores the symbiotic nature of teaching and learning. B.Ed. colleges exemplify this concept, where student teachers engage in both learning and teaching within authentic…

The 6E Learning by Design (LbD) model can enhance student teachers' development of competence for integrating technologies in the classrooms including Artificial Intelligence (AI). However, teacher educators rarely use the 6E LbD model in supporting and encouraging student teachers to integrate AI applications in their classrooms effectively. To…

This dissertation explores the challenges faced by contingent faculty in an online legal studies program in navigating evaluation systems and seeking evaluative equity. The study delves into the experiences of contingent faculty members who lack formal training in education and primarily rely on student evaluations for feedback. The data for this…

In the United States, there have been calls for reform to teacher evaluation practices for over 20 years (Reddy et al., 2016). Extant research primarily investigates administrators' perceptions of teacher evaluation process outcomes and there is limited research on teachers' perceptions of the cycle of supervision within the evaluation process.…

In Australia, the Teaching Performance Assessment (TPA) is a relatively new, mandatory hurdle which must be completed just prior to the graduation stage of initial teacher education (ITE) programmes. This high-stakes task is one of a growing number of requirements to come out of the standards and accountability regime as outlined in the Australian…

This article pushes back against the "evalu-centric view of improvement" (Hazi, 2018; 2020) in the supervision literature by advocating for a democratic pedagogy and supervision framework developed to support instructional supervision and evaluation dialogue between teachers and leaders. This democratized approach honors and centers the…

This research presents an integrative review about the methodological procedures adopted in the research of the Chemistry PCK, with the aim of identifying the data collection instruments used to explain the PCK in this field, seeking to observe its frequency of use and also contribute to the advancement of knowledge established by previous…

The Classroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS; Pianta et al., 2008) is a popular measure of teacher-child interactions. Despite its prominence, CLASS scores have fairly weak relations with various child outcomes (e.g., Zaslow et al., 2010). One potential reason for these findings could be systematic differences in observer severity. As such, the…

Teachers and school leaders frequently express a disconnect in the purpose and importance of teacher evaluation, particularly as it relates to educator growth. At the same time, some schools are beginning to communicate student growth through a standards-based grading philosophy. One way schools might "walk the talk" of their grading…

Since the early 1800s, various educational experts and philosophers have contributed to an ever-growing database regarding teacher evaluation. This valuable research has been instrumental in shaping teacher evaluation in our public schools as we know it today. While much research has taken place in public schools, there has been limited research…

Much of the early research on teachers' knowledge for reading instruction used instruments that primarily emphasized code-based aspects of reading, unintentionally signaling that meaning-focused knowledge is not essential for teaching foundational reading to elementary-age children. In this study, we developed the Knowledge for Enhancing Reading…
