Abstract | Self-evaluation is becoming an essential component of both formative and summative teacher evaluation systems. This paper defines self-evaluation as the process of judging one's own performance for purposes of self-improvement. Teachers use both formal and informal methods to assess their students' classroom performance; however, when they attend to their own performance, the assessment process tends to become informal. The bulk of this report provides a discussion of some techniques used in formal approaches to self-evaluation including tools used to collect data in self-initiated efforts allowing teachers to gain insight into their own classroom behaviors and beliefs. Three advances in educational research methods that have influenced the history of self-evaluation are highlighted: (1) rating scales and self-reports; (2) video or audio tape recordings of a live teaching episode; and (3) systematic teacher reflection. Portfolios, a purposeful collection of materials by and about a teacher that both the teacher and others can use to evaluate performance, are also described. A summary asserts that the validity and reliability of teachers' self-evaluation depends on their capacity for accurately and consistently judging their own performance. (Contains 23 references.)
