Abstract:

In the context of home-school cooperation, the influence of teacher evaluation on students’ development is specific. Through a paired questionnaire survey of 1,673 teachers, 4,050 primary and secondary school students and their parents from 97 experimental schools of home-school cooperation in Kunshan City of Jiangsu Province, the study found that the types of teacher evaluations in the home-school cooperation scenario include low-ethics, low-skills, medium-literacy, and high-literacy. Different types of teacher evaluations have different influences on students’ development. Teacher evaluations of medium and high qualities have a significant positive effect on students’ development, while teacher evaluations of low ethics and low skills do not simultaneously have a significant positive effect on students’ social and emotional skills as well as academic performance. Between teacher evaluation and student development, the mediating role of the teacher-student relationship, as well as the chain mediating role of family education guidance, parent participation, and the teacher-student relationship, has always been positively significant. However, parent participation only plays a significant positive role in the student development influence mechanism of high-quality teacher evaluation, while the mediating role of family education guidance fluctuates greatly with the type of teacher. To promote students’ development, it is necessary to develop structured, scenario-based and hierarchical standards for Chinese teacher evaluation literacy. Based on the main types, a path that can optimize teachers’ evaluation and its influence mechanism should be constructed, and the key role of home-school cooperation in promoting students’ development should be continuously refined.

Key words: home-school cooperation, teacher evaluation, social and emotional skills, academic performance, influence mechanism
