[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think when we talk about paying more for results, we're talking about each student's growth. Obviously if you get a class of gifted kids you will have higher test scores. An outstanding teacher differentiates and takes that gifted child farther, but even the child with the lowest scores in the class shows significant progress. I have seen teachers who can do this and they deserve much higher salaries. As others have mentioned, we all know people who barely made it through college and they are now teaching. I've taken many ed classes and they are the gut classes as compared to every other class I took in college. Our standards are so darn low. [/quote] I don't know anybody who barely made it through college and they are now teaching. Everybody I knew in college who went into teaching did very well in college. I do know many very good teachers, and I don't know what they did in college, and I don't care.[/quote]
