Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Curriculum evaluation
Languages : en
Pages : 68
Book Description
This document has been designed to assist members of a program review team through the process of reviewing a program. The program review process has been designed for judging the effects of the curriculum, instructional methods, and improvement strategies on the students; guiding the development of planned assistance; and providing a model for the school's own self-study process. Chapter 1 describes the methods and procedures of program review, the application of appropriate criteria for judging the schools' instructional program, and the development of proposals for improving the instructional program. Chapter 2 describes a set of criteria for curricular quality and lists precautions for reviewers about applying these criteria to the school program. Chapter 3 describes how the interaction between the review team and the school results in an assistance plan for improving the instructional program. Two appendices comprise nearly two-thirds of the document. Appendix A, "The Quality Criteria for Judging the Effect of the Program on the Elementary School Student," contains criteria for excellence in 12 areas: language arts, mathematics, science, history-social science, visual and performing arts, physical education, schoolwide effectiveness, special needs, learning environment, staff development, leadership, and program planning. Appendix B is the guide to be used by schools in conducting a self-study. (TE)
