Teacher Quality, Instructional Quality and Student Outcomes
Author: Trude Nilsen
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319412523
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 167
Book Description
This volume offers insights from modeling relations between teacher quality, instructional quality and student outcomes in mathematics across countries. The relations explored take the educational context, such as school climate, into account. The International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement’s Trends in Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) is the only international large-scale study possessing a design framework that enables investigation of relations between teachers, their teaching, and student outcomes in mathematics. TIMSS provides both student achievement data and contextual background data from schools, teachers, students and parents, for over 60 countries. This book makes a major contribution to the field of educational effectiveness, especially teaching effectiveness, where cross-cultural comparisons are scarce. For readers interested in teacher quality, instructional quality, and student achievement and motivation in mathematics, the comparisons across cultures, grades, and time are insightful and thought-provoking. For readers interested in methodology, the advanced analytical methods, combined with application of methods new to educational research, illustrate interesting novel directions in methodology and the secondary analysis of international large-scale assessment (ILSA).

Socioeconomic Inequality and Student Outcomes
Author: Louis Volante
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811398631
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 223
Book Description
This book examines socioeconomic inequality and student outcomes across various Western industrialized nations and the varying success they have had in addressing achievement gaps in lower socioeconomic status student populations. It presents the national profiles of countries with notable achievement gaps within the respective school-aged student populations, explains the trajectory of achievement results in relation to both national and international large-scale assessment measures, and discusses how relevant education policies have evolved within their national contexts. Most importantly, the national profiles investigate the effectiveness of policy responses that have been adopted to close the achievement gap in lower socioeconomic status student populations. This book provides a cross-national analysis of policy approaches designed to address socioeconomic inequality.

Using Formative Assessment to Improve Student Outcomes in the Classroom
Author: Michael W Connell
Publisher: Cast, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781930583047
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
"Formative assessment--the process of interpretating data on student performance to adapt instruction to individual needs--is perhaps the single most powerful tool available to teachers to help every student succeed to their full potential." With that bold statement, Michael W. Connell sets out to unpack formative assessment--what it is, how it works, and why it is so essential for learner growth. He shows how to incorporate it into different teaching methods and settings, such as flipped classrooms, programmed instruction, and more. The goal: to provide the benefits of individualized instruction even in group settings.

Postsecondary Student Outcomes

ISBN:
Category : College students
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
This report presents the findings from a study designed: (1) to determine the current availability and utility of student outcome statistics in the nation; and (2) to examine the feasibility and desirability of nationwide institutional reporting of student outcome data. Following an introductory section on the purposes of the report and the approaches taken, section II addresses the desirability of student outcome data, focusing on the utility of the information and the necessary properties of outcome statistics. Section III explores sources of available data on postsecondary student outcomes and describes current capabilities for reporting institutional-level student outcomes, examining both institutional and state capabilities as well as other sources. Section IV discusses problems with institutional-level student outcome reporting, examining the quality of data that are currently available and the current and prospective uses of these data. Section V identifies those aspects of student outcomes statistics that require definitional specificity and describes data collection procedures and methodologies that could minimize the various problems of student-outcome reporting and produce useful and meaningful institution-level data. Finally, section VI summarizes the report and formulates conclusions concerning the desirability and feasibility of different approaches for obtaining student outcome information. Suggestions for specific actions that must be initiated if meaningful institution-level student outcome data are to be a reality for all postsecondary institutions in the nation are provided. Appendices include technical notes and summaries of definition working group meetings. (14 references) (GLR)
