  • Another study found that at-risk students increased their social studies knowledge more when developing multimedia products than when receiving an additional week of instruction on the same content
  • Studies have shown that low-performing students are much more likely to be provided with opportunities to use computer-based technology for skill-building and drill and practice type activities. High-performing students, on the other hand, use technology for higher-order thinking activities such as data analysis and multimedia presentation
  • Teachers found that technology played an important role in identifying students’ instructional needs and helping them differentiate instruction to meet those needs. This showed up primarily in two ways: the open-ended nature of technology productivity software; and the ability of some technology programs to diagnose problems and provide targeted instruction in those areas

  • Researchers have agreed that this is an important role for technology, arguing that computer-based instruction “individualizes the educational process to accommodate . . . the student”

  • People remember things better, longer, if they are given very challenging tests on the material, tests at which they are bound to fail. In a series of experiments, they showed that if students make an unsuccessful attempt to retrieve information before receiving an answer, they remember the information better than in a control condition in which they simply study the information

    I don't agree that we can't make these correlations between student performances on tests and teacher effectiveness. But I do wonder what would happen to the children. If I am going to make another $5000 a year if my students all move X distance in a year, how much more inclined am I going to be to add lots and lots of homework in my content area to their workload? We might end up like Japan with a very high teenage suicide rate from all the pressure to perform at a young age. Where is the middle ground? Some schools reward grade levels, if all the students in ninth grade do x, everyone who taught them gets y. Makes more sense, but doesn't address the teacher competency test.
