Abstract | Educational accountability can be defined as the assigning of responsibility for educational outcomes. It has two essential dimensions--access to information about performance and the ability to change those factors thought to be responsible for unsatisfactory performance. While there are necessarily many parties held accountable in the schooling process, the schools themselves and professional educators are expected to bear the major share of responsibility. Schools should communicate to students, parents, and the public the specific objectives they seek and the conditions under which educators must work if these outcomes are to be achieved. To achieve increased accountability in education, educators should follow some logical procedures and develop a list of checkpoints. Careful, dispassionate efforts to identify learning outcomes, develop performance criteria, organize instructional sequences, perform diagnostic evaluations, provide timely feedback and correction, and manage the resources available are necessary to careful, compassionate, and humane teaching.
