Education Policy Educational Evaluation Educational Leadership Educational Tests and Measurements Ohio Teacher Evaluation System In 2012-2013, Ohio introduced a teacher evaluation system that replaced many district-created systems. The Ohio Teacher Evaluation System (OTES) incorporates quantitative student achievement data to a greater extent, a greater number of ratings classifications, more tangible consequences for teachers, requires a more extensive time commitment for evaluators, and relies more heavily on widespread uniform interpretation and implementation than most of its predecessors. This mixed-methods study investigates the ways in which OTES has reshaped principals’ approaches and perceptions toward evaluation. Quantitative data, from three years of OTES evaluations, does not indicate that principals’ evaluation ratings are influenced significantly by either of two policies unique to OTES – one policy that allows principals access to some (and only some) teachers’ quantitative ratings well in advance of submitting a qualitative rating, and another policy that allows highly-rated teachers to be evaluated less frequently in subsequent years. Qualitative data, from interviews with principals, reveal mixed perceptions about OTES’ ability to improve teacher practice and accurately reflect individual teacher effectiveness. 2017-04-26 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493143857459021 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493143857459021 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
