In her writings, she provides support for teacher evaluation as a growth exercise, and show how creating a feedback rich culture in a school nurtures this process. The underlying theme is that evaluation data be utilized to drive professional development and growth, leading to reduction of teacher attrition and improved learning for students. At the heart of this feedback rich culture is the observation and evaluation process. For evaluation to be an exercise in professional growth, data must be collected and reviewed with the teacher so the administrator can provide support with transparency. This culture also places an urgency on the teacher evaluation process that has been historically absent.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Teacher-Evaluation-as-Growth-Process-ebook\/dp\/B08F396ZC9\/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.-ihF2SIspP0X446nbXnMnQ.MUlqRG_C7Nji4DzeSBn8FCMFfVed4zdiOMxAss8D-ME&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;qid=1766178777&amp;refinements=p_27%3ADianna+Whitlock+Ed.D.&amp;s=digital-text&amp;sr=1-1&amp;text=Dianna+Whitlock+Ed.D.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Available for Kindle<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.authorhouse.com\/en\/bookstore\/bookdetails\/812510-teacher-evaluation-as-a-growth-process\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">paperback<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Contact: <a href=\"mailto:drd@whitlock-in.us\">drd@whitlock-in.us <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61586937390228\">Facebook page<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author Dianna Whitlock Dianna Whitlock is an accomplished author whose work spans both academic research and contemporary writing.
