Chapter 1: Introduction
• Everyone has a core set of beliefs and values from which they operate. Those beliefs can be both explicit and implicit.
• The authors' espoused platform:
o Children are at the heart of what we do.
o Modeling respect to each other creates a climate where children can respect each other.
o Organizational climate matters and must be conductive to collaboration, collegiality, and learning.
o "Teacher evaluation demands sophisticated professional judgment based on the collection of high-quality data (p.6)."
