As an antidote, Marshall offers a time-tested framework for supervision and evaluation that enlists teachers in improving the performance of all students.</p> <p>The book focuses on four strategies principals can take that make a real-world difference in the classroom: <b>Making</b> short, unannounced classroom visits followed by one-on-one feedback conversations; <b>Participating</b> much more actively in the curriculum unit-planning process; <b>Working</b> with teacher teams to analyze and follow up on interim assessment results; and <b>Using</b> rubrics for end-of-year teacher evaluation.</p> <p>This new edition includes: twelve key success factors for mini-observations, a deconstruction of the time management challenge that all principals face, a new chapter on the superintendent's role, and "clicker" questions for professional development. This second edition of the bestselling book is filled with a wealth of useful tools and expert advice for using supervision and evaluation practices to promote and encourage professional development.</p> <p><b>Praise for</b> <b><i>Rethinking Teacher Supervision and Evaluation</i></b></p> <p>"Kim Marshall's combination of real-world experience and visionary thinking creates a roadmap that has the potential to alter the national landscape on teacher supervision."</p> <p>--<b>Paul Bambrick-Santoyo</b>, managing director, North Star Academy Network, Uncommon Schools</p> <p>"Kim Marshall brings the wisdom of a seasoned principal and the insights of a scholar/researcher to this analysis of instructional leadership.
