excellent idea. they should also pay them more.

Ha ha ha. American your education system sucks ass.

So they're basing teacher pay on how well students do on their standardized tests?

>>1047076
While I don't agree with tying evaluations with students test scores, I do agree with raising teachers salaries.

>the state's teachers union strongly opposes it.

>>1047065
Soooo teachers will be even more pressed to just pass their students no matter how stupid they for fear of losing their job? ok.

>>1047094
achievement test couldn't be fix'd by a teacher like that

>>1047087
Throwing money at the problem won't solve anything.

>>1047094

achievement tests goofy.

>>1047105

you're not throwing money at a problem. in most cases all teachers deserve to be paid more than they are.

here's an idea, privatize education.

>>1047109
gotcha gotcha. So then the teacher is evaluated on performance only on the couple tests given in a semester?

Inb4 Teachers give Ph.Ds to retards just to save themselves from poverty.

>>1047111
hahaha no

All teachers do is read from a text book. They barely know anything about the subject

Good, now all we have to do is eliminate the Department of Education, No Child Left Behind, and let states take the needed steps in reforming their school system.

As a Union Teacher, I can say that most of the old dogs are deathly afraid of this kind of bill. Why? Because in a union you get pay by how long you are there, not by how good you are.

>>1047113

yep, to see a kid's general education improvement. in this case though it says it's 50% of the evaluation, not the whole thing. those tests are how they decide who's in the "gifted" classes in public schools, not to mention AP classes, so they're obviously a big deal. it kinda makes sense to use them in regards to a teacher's worth.

i was in the gifted classes. :)
....and now i'm on 4chan. sigh....

>>1047119
maybe at your shitty inner city school, but not every school in the country.

>>1047126
Yeah, Unions are outdated: a product of the Industrial Revolution that was needed before basic government protections were instated.

Now they only serve as corrupt political action committee funds who wish to enrich their members and supporters with taxpayer funds.

Why did we even allow unions in the public-sector in the first place? Is there some fear that people or members of a democratically elected government won't treat their teachers well?

In your average middle class neighborhood school, this probably will not be that much of an issue. I, however, feel badly for the teachers in inner city schools filled with hispanics/black people.

>>1047159
l wouldn't say I feel sorry for them but, I will lol hard at them.

>>1047105
Then what do you propose?

>>1047065


YAY! EVEN LESS GOOD TEACHERS FOR LOW INCOME AND INNER CITY SCHOOLS!

MAKES SENSE TO ME!

>>1047159

Anything that creates dissent towards mud races is a good thing to me.

>we'd rather lay off an entire school than cut the salary or get rid of an overpaid upper level bureaucrat

About time this shit gets into fucking law.

In b4 Eurofags "you didn't have this shit already?".

>>1047216

NARROW THINKING IS BAD FOR EVERYONE.

PLEASE STOP.

>>1047175

Why educate people if it's already decided by our country that they are the lowpaid hamsters in the wheel?

Working your way up the social ladder for niggers spics and gooks?

NOT IN MY BACKYARD!

>>1047249


What the fuck are you talking about?

I oppose this law.

There is no good way to test a teacher's performance in the classroom. This will just cause teachers to teach to the test and be up the principals' asses. The principals can choose which students go into which classrooms. They can give their pets the good students and leave the bad students with anyone who speaks out.

This will not help schools.

They just turned teachers into salesmen.
Wow USA.
Wow...

>>1047265

That's wrong. The teachers will get up the asses of parents if their student is not giving a shit (Something they should ALREADY be doing).

>>1047291
The teachers have no power over the parents. Asshole parents don't care what a teacher says. Most principals will not go to bat for a teacher. If the student is a little shithead, it is usually because of the parents' lack of discipline.

The only way to fix schools is for parents to raise their children with some discipline and not expect the state to do it for them.

Yes, let's teach to the test, wonderful idea.

>>1047291
1. I am a teacher
2. You are implying that the parents a) give a shit, or b) can do anything with the monsters they have created.

>>1047282
ONLY FAGGITS WANT AN EJEWKAYSHUN!
AMURIKA LEADS THU WURLD!

>>1047328

In Mass., they've been teaching to the test for the last decade. Now they're talking of potentially scrapping the test the whole damn curriculum is built around in favor of another one. And none of the people who make these decisions are or have ever been teachers last I knew.

>cut school funding
>tie performance with reviews
>expect teachers to do more with less money

Great education system you have there U.S.

at some point, america will realize that all children will not and cannot learn the same. they will re-institute special schools for retarded children, and technical trade schools for those with lower IQs. when that happens, we will rival the asian and european education systems that already do these things.

Wait.....What about inner city schools?
