A principal uses informal walk-through visits as part of her usual routine. If she is pleased, she smiles as she leaves. If she is not pleased, she sets up a meeting to talk to the teacher and place a formal rating in the teacher's folder. Defend or criticize this approach.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Students should criticize. Research has shown that when they are not used for formal assessment, teachers are much more at ease. Students should also indicate that if a negative was placed in the teacher's file, the other teacher should have a positive rating in his or her file. If they support the principal, the students need to state that there was a tacit agreement before school started that walk-through visits are formal.
