Sommario/riassunto

Based on frequent, mutual feedback from peers, students and administrators, the 2+2 method increases meaningful contact and collaboration between teachers. It also allows for administrator participation in a less threatening context than the traditional performance appraisal, greatly reducing teachers′ levels of anxiety and self-doubt, which in turn leads to increased job-satisfaction.
