Is the teacher who helps raise test scores the same as the teacher who helps our students learn in the long run? In other words does the test measure what is good to learn? Is there a relationship between what we expect them to learn and what they will use as they become adults and citizens?

koroghcm usArticle dated July 11, 2008 about how it is very difficult to predict who will be a good teacher and what that means to public education. For example, National Board certification seems to help but a master's in education does not. Nothing on a resume tells the employer what the quality of teaching will be.

What economists have found is that only one thing tells us how much a teacher will boost his students' test scores next year: the amount he raised test scores in previous years. A good teacher this year will very likely be a good teacher next year.
