Stressing the importance of using evaluation as a means to improve teacher and administrator performance, Dr. Redfern provides a practical guide to conducting an evaluation and using its results. He thoroughly describes the anatomy of the evaluation process, outlines the materials needed, and covers such often-neglected topics as evaluation of substandard performance, assessment of the performance of administrators and supervisors, evaluation as an administrative tool in education management, and the potential pitfalls inherent in the evaluation process. The book closes with detailed suggestions for developing or revising programs for personnel evaluation.
