 Re: Teacher Observations
To me I think when a class is being observed what the observers see is about 20% of what that's teacher's real class is. Once that team or your HOD, boss, colleague, etc comes into the class the lesson is no longer the same. The students as well as the teacher behave in a totally different way. It's like having a guest at home. You naughty child suddenly becomes a very calm one and a nagging spouse so calm and sweet.
A camera would do if people want to see what a teacher's class really looks like. Even in this case the camera would have to be installed without the knowledge of the students and the teachers concerned.
It's like the demo lessons recruiters rely on in order to hire teachers. Just ridiculous!
