      As important, give them a reason to care. Earlier you say "We need to help them see why they should be engaged" that feeling why we should is hard to transmit, so instead we need to inspire, make them feel compelled to investigate and learn. 
  • Second, we spoon feed our students too much.

      Authors of "Engaging Minds" recommend designing learning experiences that provide "liberating constraints"-- that is, situations with optimal structure AND ambiguity, that cause the student to question, interpret and customize their investigation and arrive at something significant and personally meaningful.
  • We need to do a better job helping them see why they should be engaged,

      Getting kids to see "why they should be engaged" is hard-- We need to set up the conditions where they feel compelled to learn. Starting the course of study with an engaging entry event can ignite that need to know. BIE arranges their PBL units around this idea-- Entry event + Driving Question are the set up, from there kids take the ball and run.

      Yep! This is risky for a lot of teachers. Their inclination is to intervene when things get messy. It's tempting but better to support kids through their struggle rather than remove the struggle.

  • teachers' ACT scores exerted a larger influence on student achievement than did student poverty level, class size, and teaching experience combined.
  • Adequate knowledge of their content areas.
  • Rice (2003), who has reviewed hundreds of studies of teacher quality, notes that

  • "subject matter knowledge contributes to good teaching only up to a certain point, beyond which it does not seem to have an impact" (p. 37).
  • Good teachers must know their subjects well, but having doctoral-level knowledge of Freudian interpretations of Victorian literature, for example, doesn't really improve someone's ability to teach language arts to 8th graders.
  • Knowledge of how to teach their subject areas
  • They found that although content knowledge is essential, teachers who also possess strong pedagogical content knowledge are more effective than those with content knowledge alone.
  • strong pedagogical content knowledge
  • were likely to gain a full year more learning than students whose teachers had weak pedagogical content knowledge (among the bottom one-fifth of teachers).
  • common metrics for hiring and rewarding teachers are only weakly linked to student success.
  • Traditional licensure or credentials.
  • "little rigorous evidence that [teacher certification] is systematically related to student achievement"
  • Yet the study detected no before-and-after effects—that is, teachers appeared no more effective after undergoing the grueling certification process than before it (Clotfelter, Ladd, & Vigdor, 2007).
  • Advanced degrees.
  • "have found no discernible effect of teachers having a master's degree or higher on student achievement" (p. 26).
  • One possible exception appears to be high school science and mathematics,
  • Extensive classroom experience.
  • Yet on average, after a few years of teaching, added years of teaching experience appear to offer little guarantee of increased effectiveness.
  • teacher effectiveness
  • Belief that all students can learn.
  • Belief in their own abilities
  • Ability to connect with students.
  • School leaders must consider, then, which attributes they can augment and which they cannot.
  • reexamine the metrics, explicit or implicit, they use to select and compensate teachers
  • Being credentialed, being experienced, or holding an advanced degree is no guarantee of effectiveness
  • know how to teach
  • teacher's dispositions and attitudes
  • teased out through interviews and observations
  • analogy
  • quality of their teachers can be the difference between academic success and failure.
  • Verbal and cognitive ability.
