The very mention of the word strikes fear in the hearts of many teachers and school leaders, leading to confusion and panic rather than improved student achievement. Author Douglas B. Reeves explains how to transform accountability from destructive and demoralizing accounting drills into a constructive decision-making process that improves teaching, learning, and leadership. Reeves encourages educators to become proactive in developing student-centered accountability systems. These systems capture the many aspects of teaching that test scores don't reveal-they tell the stories behind the numbers. Reeves shows how educators can create accountability systems that enhance teacher motivation and lead to significant improvements in student achievement and equity, even in traditionally low-performing schools. Accountability for Learning explains how to build a student-centered accountability system by examining key indicators in teaching, leadership, curriculum, and parent and community involvement. Focusing on the classroom, it outlines how teachers can become leaders in accountability by using a four-step process of observation, reflection, synthesis, and replication of effective teaching practices. Finally, the author discusses the role of local, state, and federal policymakers and corrects the myths associated with No Child Left Behind. "As educators, we have two choices," Reeves says. "We can rail against the system, hoping that standards and testing are a passing fad, or we can lead the way in a fundamental reformulation of educational accountability." Accountability for Learning gives readers the helping hand they need to lead the way to fair and comprehensive accountability. Douglas B. Reeves leads the Center for Performance Assessment, and international organization dedicated to improving student achievement and educational equity. He is the author of 17 books, including the best-selling Making Standards Work. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Educational accountability|zUnited States. 650 0 School improvement programs|zUnited States. 650 7 EDUCATION|xFinance.|2bisacsh 650 7 Educational accountability.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00903326 650 7 School improvement programs.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01107461 650 7 Réforme pédagogique.|2rasuqam 650 07 Lehrer.|2swd 650 07 Qualitätssteigerung.|2swd 650 07 Schule.|2swd 650 07 Schulentwicklung.|2swd 650 07 Schulleitung.|2swd 650 17 Responsabilité du rendement (Éducation)|2rasuqam 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 651 7 United States.|2rasuqam 651 7 United States.|2swd 655 4 Electronic books. 710 2 Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aReeves, Douglas B., 1953- |tAccountability for learning.|dAlexandria, Va. : Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development, ©2004|z0871208334|w(DLC) 2003022597|w(OCoLC)53223611 914 ocm54751684 994 93|bGTK
