Teacher appraisal and feedback

Innovative teaching is recognised with high priority in some countries but low in others

In rewarding teachers, more needs to be done to recognise and incentivise innovation

Stronger links between school evaluation and teacher evaluation more likely to influence teaching practices

Teaching beliefs and practices

Teachers in virtually all countries share the same beliefs about how to teach but in general, teaching practices do not follow these beliefs.

A better disciplinary climate is more often found in classrooms where:

Teachers adopt more structuring in their teaching practices

Class sizes are smaller Teachers are more experienced

School leadership

In a number of countries, where school leaders adopt a stronger pedagogical leadership role:

greater recognition given to teachers for innovative teaching practices

there is more collaboration between teachers better student-teacher relations more emphasis on developmental outcomes of

teacher appraisals.

What more could we learn? Which teachers take part in innovation-

related professional development activities? Age, gender, employment status….

How does the teacher appraisal system encourage such participation?

Are innovative activities less likely in high stakes environment?

In what circumstances is innovation rewarded?
