批判和改进:21世纪美国教师评价思想及实践的矫正

Criticism and Improvement:The Thoughts and Practice Adjusting of Teacher Evaluation in USA in the 21st Century

21世纪美国教师评价实践沿着问责的方向大步前进,暴露出一系列的问题,研究者们对此进行了反思,逐渐形成两股思潮,一是批判性教师评价思想,一是促进学校改进的教师评价思想。两种思想相互交织、渗透,矫正了近期的美国教师评价实践。教师作为专业领导者在学校发展以及自身权益决策上将发挥更大的作用,这也是下个时期美国教师评价发展的新方向。

In the 21 st century,teacher evaluation in the United States has reformed deeply,and has exposed accountability as a failed network of education policies.Researchers addressed these problems and gradually formed two thoughts.One is critical thinking of teacher evaluation,the other is teacher evaluation as a school improvement strategy thought.The two trends,which are interweaved and interconnected each other,are reshaping the practice of teacher evaluation.With these new trends,teachers as professional leaders will play more and more important role,not only on the decision-making of school development,but also on their own rights and interests.This is also the new direction of the development of teacher evaluation in the United States in the near future.
