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.

Measures of Effective Teaching

You might ask, why is a system like this so important? It's because there's so much variation in the teaching profession. Some teachers are far more effective than others. In fact, there are teachers throughout the country who are helping their students make extraordinary gains. If today's average teacher could become as good as those teachers, our students would be blowing away the rest of the world. So we need a system that helps all our teachers be as good as the best. What would that system look like? Well, to find out, our foundation has been working with 3,000 teachers in districts across the country on a project called Measures of Effective Teaching. We had observers watch videos of teachers in the classroom and rate how they did on a range of practices.你可能要问,为什么这个系统这么重要?因为在教学领域中存在极大的多样性。有些教师的教学效率要远高于其他老师。实际上,这个国家的一些老师正在指导学生如何取得杰出的成就。如果现在普通的教师能够有这些教师的水平,那么我们的学生将让这个世界为之震惊。因此,我们需要一个系统能够帮助每一个教师做到最好。这是一个什么样的系统呢?为寻求答案,我们的基金会正在和美国各个地区的3000个教师一起进行一个叫做有效教学措施的项目。我们派遣了观察员观看教师的课堂教学视频,并对一系列方面进行评比。 |
