[quote=Anonymous][quote]I don’t really care if you believe me or not. You can google the research - and there is a TON of it out there. [b]The most significant factor in improving student learning is the teacher. [/b] Here is just one article that outlines some of the research. http://www.newteacher.com/pdf/NCPrincipalsExecProgram.pdf And, yes, I have taught in several high “FARMS” schools. (I hate that acronym) And, I never said that the teacher is responsible for all of society’s ills.[/quote] This is not true at all. The teacher has less than 18% significance and in some studies it is as low as 9%. I will look for the studies, but I have read a lot and this is pretty much it. And it really supports my own experience as a teacher of 27 years. I will look for a link. [/quote]
