| Summary: | Over the last decade, research from many
different countries has demonstrated the important role
played by teachers in improving students' learning and
increasing their competencies. Studies from countries as
different as the US and Indonesia have shown the enormous
benefits that follow from having adequate and effective
teachers working in a country's schools. In Indonesia,
a value-added analysis of student learning outcomes found
that the more teachers know, the greater the improvements in
the learning competencies of primary and junior secondary
students. In the US, better teaching in elementary and
secondary schools has been shown to increase students'
college participation rates, raise their subsequent
earnings, and improve other long-term outcomes. |
