Abstract
Current accountability trends suggest an increasing role in state mandates regarding teacher evaluation. With various evaluation models and components serving as the basis for quality teaching, teacher education programs need to recognize the role teacher evaluation plays and incorporate aspects where appropriate. This article makes that case and presents some of the models and components that can inform teacher preparation. Although teacher evaluation should never drive teacher education, it can provide meaningful direction and useful tools.
