Effective Teachers

Let me start off by saying that this was a good editorial. This country has the opportunity to remake the way that our students are being taught. After all these years, these developments zero in on the most important factor of getting a good education. How effective are these teachers?

This author is very optimistic about this issue. She believes the key to helping students learn is by having an effective teacher in the classroom every year. She is working with more than 3,000 teachers in more than 7 different school districts to develop measures of teacher effectiveness. I don't think she means any harm in doing this. She seems very sincere and concerned about the well being of students today. It seems like she is trying to get the word out to the parents, guardians, and teachers of these students. I think she wants them to be concerned just as much as she is. I agree with her. We all want the best for our kids, brothers, and sisters. Right?! Well we should! Education is a very important thing. Without one, you really cant go far in life. I dont think there is anything wrong with trying to better our teachers for the well being of our students. If it's going to actually have a better effect on the students, then I don't see why teachers shouldn't participate. If teachers want the best for their own kids, they need to be the best for somebody else's!
