Whatever the parties negotiate or King decides, the evaluation system will be based 20 percent on standardized test scores when applicable, 20 percent on other evidence
of student learning and 60 percent on classroom observation and other
measures of teacher effectiveness, in keeping with the 2010 state law on teacher evaluation.
This is obviously a ripe area for further investigation and analysis, but today it's legitimate to observe, even on the basis
of this limited research, that the burden is shifting to the schools and their supporters to
measure and make public
whatever academic benefit they do bestow on their
students versus what similar young people
learn in other settings.
