The present study aims to develop a web-based model for English teacher evaluation, which purports to encourage a teacher to get actively involved in his or her own professional development through critical reflection upon teaching. The evaluation model using portfolio is based on the assumption that the teacher should play a key role in the evaluation process in order to bring about change in teaching. Another theoretical premise of the model is that data on teaching should be gathered from multiple sources such as observation, student performance and self-appraisal. The web-based model encourages stakeholders, e.g., administrators, headteachers, parents, to take part in the evaluation process. The model reflects the findings of a questionnaire survey on teachers’ perceptions on teacher evaluation and their needs. It is suggested that a number of factors related to administration, technology and content should be considered for the effective application of the model. Some suggestions are also made concerning evaluator training, time constraints, institutional support, and further research.
