STUDIES ON EVALUATION OF TEACHERS (IN INDIA AND ABROAD) - IIIBY: nilesh | Category: Education | Post Date: 2009-01-29
The term Self-evaluation of teachers refers to the process of collecting and analyzing relevant information about the teacher himself or herself. The fundamental principle involved in this process is that teachers should also see themselves as learners. In many of the European countries Self-evaluation of the teachers is in major practice. Some of the Indian educational institutions have also adopted this type of evaluation. Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) Amritsar became the first Indian University to adopt -Manual for self-study- derived by National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). University Grant Commission (UGC) in its -Schemes of Autonomous Colleges- has also suggested the colleges to adopt Self-appraisal of teachers as common programme. According to Richard M. Felder and Rebecca Brent (North Carolina State University) in the article How to Evaluate Teaching (2004) -Students are in better position than anyone else to judge certain aspects of teaching, such as how clear, interesting, respectful and fair a course instructor is, and they are the only ones who can say how an instructor has influenced their attitude towards the course subject. Their motivation to learn it and their self-confidence.- McKeachie (1997) supported student evaluation of teachers' with considering it as the single most valid source of data on teaching. The University of British Columbia (UBC) had approved a policy on student evaluation of teaching while considering its importance. In India N.S.S. Training College, Ottapalam (Run by Nair Service Society) in its Quality Policy practicing student evaluation of teacher by providing a questionnaire to the students. The Internal Quality Assurance Cell (Annammal College of Education for Women, Thutukudi) in its Annual Report 2006-07 highlighted their practice of student evaluation of teachers. T. Ramanna College, Aizawl (Mijoram) had also prepared the scheme of student evaluation of teachers as per recommendations of National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC). University Grant Commission (UGC) also recommended the Autonomous colleges and Universities to adopt its scheme on student evaluation of teachers'. These stapes taken by various government and non-government educational institutions proves that the teacher evaluation in any form become very much needed and become very important in present context. It motivates the teachers by treating them as professional in charge of their own professional growth and helpful to encourage teachers' professional growth and to improve teacher morale. The term teacher morale means a feeling, state of mind and a mental and emotional attitude. It means that the increased teacher morale indicates that teachers will enjoy teaching and students will enjoy learning. In this way it seems that teacher morale will become a pleasant effect of teacher evaluation.
