Criteria Employed by High School Principals in Evaluating Teachers in Victoria
Abstract
Principals' evaluation of teachers for classroom and administrative promotion was the focus of this study. Data were collected from 230 principals of Victorian high schools by means of the instrument developed by Moore based on Mitzel's process, product and presage criteria. Findings revealed that although a common body of criteria was used principals placed prime emphasis upon process criteria in evaluating teachers for classroom promotion and upon presage criteria in evaluating teachers for administrative promotion. The study also established relationships between some of the evaluative criteria and certain “biographical” variables such as principal's age and extent of administrative experience.
