Sources of Variance in Principals’ Ratings of Teaching: Baseline and Within-Year Growth Trends
We utilized two years of teacher observation data from a large urban district to examine the timing, sources of variance, and growth of classroom observation ratings by evaluators and teacher self-assessments. Teachers represented the largest source of variance, and the average teachers’ scores experienced modest within-year increases. We found near-zero variance in individual teacher growth, which may reflect homogeneity or data limitations. Fin…
Reformed teacher evaluation in rural Missouri: Main and moderated relationships with student achievement and relationships-to-expenditure ratios
We extend rural educator labor market research by estimating a reformed teacher evaluation system's relationships with student achievement, identifying the settings with positive relationships, and incorporating evaluation expenditures. That the literature omits these contributions is concerning, as research implies it hinders evidence-based policymaking for rural districts, which outnumber urban districts in the USA. We apply a difference-in-dif…
Policy-Assigned Teacher Observations, Their Implementation, and Student Discipline Outcomes: Main, Mediated, and Moderated Relationships
This study is the first to estimate main, mediated, and moderated relationships between policy-assigned observations and various student discipline outcomes (SDOs). We also examined the relationships between SDOs and observations conducted. The data suggest that the percentage of students who receive at least one SDO decreases as policy assigns schools an additional 25 observations and that in-school suspension reductions drive this relationship.…
