EVALUATION OF TEACHER PERFORMANCE: A FUNDAMENTAL PIECE IN THE SEARCH FOR EDUCATIONAL QUALITY
Main Article Content
Abstract
One of the most important elements of an education system is the teacher. Because quality teachers provide a good and qualified education. For this reason, it is said that a school is only as good as the teachers in it. In order to provide a good education in schools, that is, for students to succeed, it is necessary to increase the quality of education in school, which cannot increase significantly without qualified teachers. The performance of the teacher is also very important in terms of ensuring effectiveness and efficiency in teaching. To improve the quality of education systems and increase the effectiveness of teaching, there is a need to focus on teacher evaluation. In the teaching process, it is extremely important to closely monitor the teacher's performance in order to reach goals quickly, to help and guide. It is now natural that all components of the teacher education system are analysed in an evaluation process.
