THE DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF A RESOURCE GUIDE FOR UTILIZING CRITICAL INCIDENTS IN THE EVALUATION OF TEACHERS

The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a resource guide utilizing critical incidents in the evaluation of teachers. Eight teaching areas (Instructional Strategies, Professional Preparation, Planning and Preparation, Classroom Management, Teacher-Parent Relationships, Teacher-Pupil Relationships, Subject Competency, and Contribution to Total School Effort), 8 standards, 260 performance indicators, and 51 critical incidents were evaluated by an inside jury of 6 experts in the area of education from the Florida State University. The revised resource guide containing 8 standards, 51 critical incidents, and 203 performance indicators was related to the teaching areas evaluated by 10 outside jury members: 4 teachers, 4 administrators, 1 psychologist and 1 educational coordinator from the State of Florida. The finalized resource guide contained a manual, showing how to use the guide, which included 8 teaching areas, 8 standards, 201 performance indicators, and 36 critical incidents / The findings revealed that a teacher evaluation resource guide utilizing critical incidents could be developed. The study indicated that: (1) Selected critical incidents collected from practitioners could be used to develop a resource guide for evaluating teachers. (2) Based on the evaluation of the two juries, the resulting resource guide was determined to be a useful tool in the developing of a teacher evaluation program. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 43-10, Section: A, page: 3176. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1982.
