Student Perceptions and the MET Project
This is a broad overview of Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) project. The project, which is supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, seeks to develop and test multiple measures of teacher effectiveness. This overview identifies five critical areas of research and explores key components, such as the Tripod survey, which is used to gather, organize, and report on student perceptions at the classroom level.
From Arkansas to Massachusetts, California to Ohio, districts across the country are making incredible progress in boosting student achievement and increasing teacher effectiveness.
Research shows that teachers learn best from each other, and that a school leadership model that leverages teacher leadership can positively impact instruction. Why not turn to teachers to help lead in the area they know best?
