Teacher's Effectiveness Greatly Impacts Student's Achievement

A recent study finds ways to increase the effectiveness of teachers by reforming hiring practices and finding new methods on teacher training and development. A collective study by Burgees showed that a teacher’s variations in a teacher’s way of teaching or effectiveness greatly impacts a student’s way of learning. Given the fact that more studies need to be done to analyze the area more, Burgess points out three areas in particular to improving teacher's effectiveness:
- Improving teacher selection and hiring procedures.
- Reforming teacher contracts and the tenure/retention decision.
- Re-thinking teacher professional development.
