Chapter 16: Becoming A Better Teacher By Becoming A Reflective Teacher

  1. Interview a teacher about peer/administrator evaluations. Ask the teacher to describe the typical evaluation done by a peer or administrator. Does the teacher find this evaluation material helpful? Why or why not? In the teacher's opinion, what are the strengths of peer/administrator evaluations? What are the weaknesses of peer/administrator evaluations? How does the teacher use the information from the evaluations to inform his/her teaching?

  2. Interview a teacher about how he/she documents teaching effectiveness. Is the teacher required to present any specific documentation about his/her effectiveness in the classroom? Why or why not? If so, how does the teacher document this? Many preservice teachers are required to create a portfolio to document their effectiveness or learning. How can you use this portfolio in your future teaching to continue to document your progress?
