Teacher Effectiveness System



Education is important. It prepares a person to become a productive member of society who can contribute to its progress. There are many ways to gain education and one of the most common ways is through a school system where teachers are in the forefront of learning.  For teachers to be effective in their roles, schools system should develop a teacher assessment method. 

 Teacher assessment is not about finding faults in the teaching methods.  Rather, teacher assessment is about teacher development.  The progress of the child’s education depends on the effectiveness of the teachers.  Beyond the quality of teaching, teacher assessment can look through existing technologies and school adaptability to new processes to improve student participation.   It is through teacher assessment that school administrators can engage teachers into reviewing the teaching methods themselves.

Engaging the teachers into the improvement process instead of fault-checking is a more participative approach. Teacher assessment becomes a voluntary self-assessment. When teacher assessment is part of the self-check a teacher practices regularly, effective teaching becomes the standard. Ultimately, teachers prepare students for college and, eventually, the real life.  It is the teachers who drive the students to pursue and develop their interests. It is through teacher assessment that a teacher can sustain the motivation and desire to inspire students to achieve their career goals. 

School Improvement Network has a systematic and organizational approach on how teacher assessment could be done in your school. School administrators will have the tools to encourage and implement teacher assessment methods for teacher development. School Improvement Network can be accessed through http://www.schoolimprovement.com.  For educators who want teacher assessment and development, you can sign up to receive a free trial of the Teacher Effectiveness System (TES).  A professional teacher assessment and development advisor can show educators how to use the TES.
