About this title

Synopsis

Increasing student achievement is a top priority, and educators are focused on carefully planning and evaluating their school improvement programs. Evaluating Programs to Increase Student Achievement not only lays the foundation for the evaluation of programs but also outlines the phases of assessment with step-by-step procedures for each assessment phase.

Although this book is designed for school leaders who have little or no experience in evaluating programs, it includes practical guidelines that even an expert evaluator will find indispensable. Leadership strategies based on a model of team learning between teachers and administrators provide opportunities for professional growth as well as school improvement.
