摘要：AbstractCompared with worldwide models for executing these types of evaluations, there are three notable features of the Taiwanese approach: (1) peer evaluation, (2) professional growth orientation, and (3) a school-based model. This study investigated 53 selected schools to examine how blogs/websites improved the knowledge and skills of school evaluators, established mutual trust and a culture of sharing, and promoted teacher professional development and school development. A questionnaire, field interviews, and observations were employed to analyse the effectiveness of e-evaluation.This study had five notable results: (1) In more than 50% of the schools, the e-evaluation system included an announcement system, a digital portfolio, and a professional growth activity based on the evaluation report. Most of this information was available to the public. In 14.6% of the schools, the e-evaluation system contained information from teaching observations, portfolio assessments, and final reports, most of which was not available to the public. (2) The more comprehensive the e- evaluation system, the higher the passing rate for the evaluation personnel was during training and the more on-campus evaluators were involved, especially high-level evaluators. (3) The e-evaluation system included functions for model demonstration and the exchange of curricular materials, which helped to promote curricular reform and to earn the recognition of parents. (4) The schools quickly established cultures of sharing and discussion to form cooperative teams, enter various competitions and win awards, and raise school awareness. (5) The management of e-evaluation was a great help to the school administrators, reduced paper consumption, and improved progress control.
