Bansilal, Sarah; Lephoto, Thabo; North, Delia; Zewotir, Temesgen – South African Journal of Education, 2022

In this study we used data from the 2015 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) to look at the interplay between…

Does student-teacher match quality exist? Prior work has documented large disparities in teachers' impacts across student types but has not distinguished between sorting and causal effects as the drivers of these disparities. I propose a disparate value-added model and derive a novel measure of teacher quality--revealed comparative advantage--that…

Bruno, Paul; Strunk, Katharine O. – National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research (CALDER), 2018
Despite evidence that many schools and districts have considerable discretion when hiring teachers and the existence of an extensive literature on teacher quality, little is known about how best to hire teachers. This is, in part, because predicting teacher quality using readily-observable teacher characteristics has proven difficult and there is…

Rosas, Clarissa; Campbell, Lisa – Teacher Education and Special Education, 2010
The No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) mandates that every classroom be staffed with a "highly qualified teacher." Research supports that teachers' content knowledge affects student achievement. However, the special education population continues to be taught by teachers who do not have the content area background they teach. In addition,…

Jepsen, Christopher; Rivkin, Steven – Public Policy Institute of California, 2002
Intuitively, class size reduction is a good idea. Parents support it because it means that their children will receive more individual attention from teachers. Teachers like it for the same reason and also because it creates a more manageable workload. It is generally assumed that the fewer students in a class, the better they will learn and the…
