and welcome back integrations david shuster this is executive who's
traditional marriage for continuing or debate about education reforms in
education reform in this country in the wake of the massive cheating scandal in
the u_s_ city public schools
and we are speaking with a more kiss winters arguing for what i would call
the more competitiveness
*** valuations partially just as a valuation side of the education reform
spectrum
he's a senior fellow the man institute and way anytime soon the executive
director of class size matters
briefly mark is picking up where we left off why not the montgomery county
maryland system why would you take it out of consideration if it just because
they have a strong testing component
very familiar perfectly with the muck out of it uh... that particular
montgomery county sitcom i mean it fired white women inc core rate the top i hate
you know i got back within about a lot of places that i think probably should
have got to go to the point is that tests or not
necessary
that's not good are necessary though i felt like i can talk with the deal with
that program probably what i can tell you that looked up at work
are providing a put information at the current system it just simply missing
um... they do they they are not perfect which one should never use a few years
with that kind of teachers using the press corps thirty may complain that the
clinton abut that that is the teacher over a multi year period of doing really
poorly according to the measures that is not a teacher are that that you want
your child uh... to be educating it'd to be taking your student and the problem
is that the current system simply throw it away that information that that we
have a are deplorable now
uh... and and uh... growing that the information away about the public will
fit in the most important resource
uh... which is you know the quality of of teacher in the classroom
i would add up to you know another thing that came up in an ideal under the
value-added put them uh... you know few teachers are being removed adio there
the big new york times very about that the other day and then that true but
does not value added problem it if the reader does not value out of the reading
the for that is at the foot some uh... one departing very low standard even
bateman value-added and
incorporating a large subjective component and tried to deliver still
going about and labeling every teacher defective along the way we need a colter
seriously trying to evaluate and identifier back to work teachers and
acting accordingly
we need a culture that also
values teachers enough to pay them as much as highly-paid private-sector
professionals
because i think about
the system that exists in ontario canada for instance those teachers went on
strike in nineteen ninety-three and since then they've had a very amicable
relationship they get paid more relative to the other private sector jobs
than or teachers do in america and and yet ontario has some lies education
standards in the world that's with an extremely cooperative
teachers union and nona
are we being up on teacher unions too much lenny
blackpool landing i think we're beating up on teaching working much and aren't
weakling
even the court reformers cling to respect teachers but then we ignore
their input when it comes to power through should be running what policy
should be implement
so if you go he teaches across the country media national survey terry
keenan surveyed in individual location overwhelmingly if they are half what or
the best way to improve their effectiveness
number one always comes that we can cut five
and that over ninety to ninety five percent of teachers say the best way to
improve the quality teaching in the classroom
intuitive cartwright
and get over and over practi been increased in recent years
on the gate foundation
heads funded many study at in so-called think-tank
saying we should not be spending our money and that you can clarify if in
fact we should be increasing class time
and put putting out a that eventually bogus reports that have no factual
evidence apparently behind them
practi production is one of only four of five q twelve mccormick which they keep
it a good education find institute for research arm of the next part of
education that have proven to work
to improve achievement to record evidence
i think that more than ninety percent of teaching say they don't give them a
pathway to improve teacher quality it something that on tax payer thirty even
republicans and democrats are willing to pay more for if they know the money can
go to the duke left five px and yet it is the number one thing that the court
to look forward to and uh... on bill gates and with other billionaire cronyn
want to make sure that never happened new york city public schools or in
public schools across the country
