In this essential new book, best-selling author and researcher Robert J. Marzano and teacher-effectiveness expert Michael D. Toth lay out a framework for the ""next generation"" of teacher evaluation: a model focused primarily on helping educators develop and improve their practice. By taking into account multiple accurate, data-rich measures of teacher performance and student growth, the model ensures that all teachers receive fair, meaningful, and reliable evaluations. The book includes:

• Standards, rubrics, and suggested rating methodologies.
• A detailed, five-phase plan for implementing the model.
• Guidelines for calibrating evaluation criteria according to teachers' experience levels.
• A step-by-step guide to creating a coaching program for teachers who require intervention.
• Recommendations for using technology platforms to enable teacher collaboration.

Teacher evaluation has too often focused on affixing ratings to teachers rather than helping them grow into mastery. The practical, field-tested model proposed in Teacher Evaluation That Makes a Difference has everything your school or district needs to provide teachers-and, by extension, their students-with the support necessary for success.
