[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP here. It seems like the biggest difference between CMI and ITS is that ITS teachers have several years more experience and also have masters degrees. [/quote] More experience matters in that first (and to some degree second and third) year teachers have the least "value added" in terms of student learning but a master degree isn't correlated with any learning gains for students. For whatever reason, we don't yet know what makes a good teacher a good teacher. Degrees don't seem to be meaningful yet (meaning, maybe if they taught the right things they would be).[/quote] Agreed. I believe the average lead/master teacher at ITS has 12-15 years experience.
