Summary

This book is about teacher evaluation in public schools and how we can improve it.

Additional text

Dr. Giordano presents a thorough analysis of the system of teacher evaluation used in American public schools, concluding that the system is both inefficient and ineffective, and offers insightful recommendations on how to improve the system for evaluating teacher performance. I was impressed by the depth of Giordano’s understanding of the issue, and the clarity and insight of his presentation and recommendations. This book will provide a foundation for a much needed discussion on improving the system that should be of great interest to educators, administrators, and parents.
