[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many teachers are incompetent, but are protected. We need an effective merit system and competency testing to get rid of the bad teachers.[/quote] The professions that I can think of that have the harshest weed out periods early career are also the best paid. Are you willing to pay teachers like Goldman Sachs pays its associates? Should a middle school teacher who has made it through your testing be paid like lawyer who has made it through to partner?[/quote] Also no testing. [b]The bottom line should be “do you care?”[/b] There’s no test that can measure that. Teachers that don’t care should move into professions they do care about. No more pointless paperwork[/quote] No. I’ve met plenty of ineffective and inefficient teachers who really do care. No other job gets paid for “caring”. Most workers get paid for results and need to show evidence thereof. [/quote]
