Research for High-Quality Urban Teaching: Defining It, Developing It, Assessing It
Author(s): Jeannie Oakes, Megan Loef Franke, Karen Hunter Quartz and John Rogers
Abstract:
Using research focusing on urban schools, the authors articulate the need for expanding the definition of urban teacher quality, understanding teacher learning within the context of urban schools, and developing processes and structures that support urban teachers. They conclude with a call to develop ways to gauge the success and impact of efforts to develop urban teacher competencies that go beyond teacher retention rates and student achievement data.
