Until recently, many teachers only got one word of feedback a year: “satisfactory.” And with no feedback, no coaching, there’s just no way to improve. Bill Gates suggests that even great teachers can get better with smart feedback -- and lays out a program from his foundation to bring it to every classroom.

Everyone needs a coach. It doesn't matter whether you're a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player. My bridge coach, Sharon Osberg, says there are more pictures of the back of her head than anyone else's in the world. Sorry, Sharon. Here you go. We all need people who will give us feedback. That's how we improve. Unfortunately, there's one group of people who get almost no systematic feedback to help them do their jobs better, and these people have one of the most important jobs in the world. I'm talking about teachers. When Melinda and I learned how little useful feedback most teachers get, we were blown away. Until recently, over 98% of teachers just got one word of feedback: Satisfactory. If all my bridge coach ever told me was that I was "satisfactory," I would have no hope of ever getting better. How would I know who was the best? How would I know what I was doing differently? Today, districts are revamping the way they evaluate teachers, but we still give them almost no feedback that actually helps them improve their practice. Our teachers deserve better. The system we have today isn't fair to them. It's not fair to students, and it's putting America's global leadership at risk. So today I want to talk about how we can help all teachers get the tools for improvement they want and deserve.每个人能都需要教练，不管你是篮球运动员，网球运动员，体操运动员还是桥牌手。我的桥牌教练，莎伦，她说自己后脑勺的图片比全世界都多。不好意思莎伦，但这张终于让你转过来了。所有人都需要能给自己反馈的人。这才是如何让我们进步。不幸的是，有些人几乎没有得到任何系统的反馈来助力工作，而且这些人却从事世界上最重要的职业之一，老师。当梅琳达和我得知大多数老师得到的有效反馈是如此之少时，我们真的大吃一惊。直到最近，98%以上的老师得到的反馈只是一个词，就是满意。如果我的教练总是对我说满意的话，那我就不指望自己会更好的进步。我怎么知道谁最好呢？我怎么知道自己做的和别人不一样呢？如今，各个地方正在改革对教师的评估方式，但我们几乎仍没有给他们有价值的反馈。我们的老师们应该有更好的反馈，我们如今的评估系统对他们真的不公平。这也对我们的学生不公平。这也让我们全球领先者的地位岌岌可危。所以我今天要讲的是如何帮助老师获取他们想要的也是应得的工具以提高教学质量。 |
