Transfers knowledge; Pokes creativity; Has Passion; Is Committed to educate.
![Page 12: E- 1 01 Section 10 November 14, 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816143550346895dd0b5e9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How many of you have been trained as teachers?

Debrief
Did we see “the good”? Did we see “the bad”? Is this feasible in other places? Can anyone teach? Is a teacher a professional or a technician? Scripted vs. unscripted curriculum?
![Page 16: E- 1 01 Section 10 November 14, 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816143550346895dd0b5e9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Example of the use of a 21st Century tool
A school in Maine, last September adopted the use of a tablet replacing books.In the beginning all the students – boys in the age of 17 to 20 years old – enjoyed the new idea. However, three weeks after some teachers noticed that
The use of tablet wasn’t being used by the students as a book, but as a camera or way to go to social medias while in class;
The tablets in a class as Calculus couldn’t substitute the use of the notebooks; The teachers weren’t properly trained to use this new tool and the students’
performances was below the normal average from the year before.Before the end of the first quarter, students and teachers analyzed that it was a big mistake to eliminate the use of books. Some students decided to print some books’ chapters to make notes, and massively started using notebooks.
What would you suggest that this school should do, or have done to ease the use of this new technology?

Recognizing Educational Success, Professional Excellence, Collaborative Teaching (RESPECT)
Time for a sweeping transformation of the profession Respected profession on par with medicine, law, and
engineering Reorganized classroom, new school day and year Shared responsibility between teacher & principal Distributed leadership, career pathways Teacher evaluation and development

Follow-up: Gates Foundation
Measures of Effectiveness in Teaching (MET): 1. A teacher‘s past success in raising student
achievement is strongest predictor of doing so again2. Teachers with the highest value-added scores help
students perform better on supplemental tests 3. Students know effective teaching when experiencing
it4. Different sources of data can provide diagnostic,
targeted feedback to teachers
![Page 27: E- 1 01 Section 10 November 14, 2012](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56816143550346895dd0b5e9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Follow-up: OECD/PISA
Performance-based pay (OECD 2012) No relationship with student performance overall Where salaries <15% above GDP per capita students perform
better, eg. Czech Republic, Poland, US Opposite is true for >15%, eg. Australia, UK, Japan Use valid „value-added“ measures of performance Consider individual, group and school rewards Countries that have succeeded in making teaching an attractive
profession have often done so not just through pay, but by raising the status of teaching, offering real career prospects, and giving teachers responsibility as professionals and leaders of reform
