"The paper caused a remarkable stir
last week, and for good reason: It’s one of the most dense, important
and interesting analyses on this topic in a very long time. Much of the
reaction, however, was less than cautious, specifically the manner in
which the research findings were interpreted to support actual policy implications (also see Bruce Baker’s excellent post).
What this paper shows – using an extremely detailed dataset and sophisticated, thoroughly-documented methods – is that teachers matter, perhaps in ways that some didn’t realize. What it does not
show is how to measure and improve teacher quality, which are still
open questions. This is a crucial distinction, one which has been
discussed on this blog numerous times (also here and here),
as it is frequently obscured or outright ignored in discussions of how
research findings should inform concrete education policy."
