Education Reform and the Limits of Policy: Lessons from Michigan

“…Witness the current efforts of the coalition of national organizations behind the push for common national standards, with the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers overseeing the "common core" effort. And recently, we have the report of the Strategic Management of Human Capital project calling for states and school districts to overhaul how they recruit, prepare, evaluate, and compensate teachers (Odden 2011).…”

Do Teacher Perceptions of School Working Contexts Contribute to the Quality of Teacher-Student Interactions in the Classroom?

“…Teachers and administrators constantly engage in both formal and informal professional interactions with each other. Federal and state mandates increasingly require teachers to emerge from the isolation of their classrooms and work together in a variety of capacities to improve student outcomes (Hargreaves & Fullan, 2012;Goddard, Goddard, & Tschannen-Moran, 2007;Odden, 2011). As a result, the professional interactions that teachers have in their school environments may be more important than ever before.…”

“…I chose the item because it served as a contemporary example of task analysis. The power of school leadership has been a frequent topic in the literature in the past two decades, and it has an important influence on classroom teaching (see Hargreaves & Fullan, 2012;Odden, 2011). In the end, EFA fit indices indicated that including the item was an asset to the scale, and the item was retained.…”

“…Often these decisions are based on trends promoted by national educational organizations or recent research literature. For example, collaborative work among teachers has become the norm in both professional development and day-to-day planning (Goddard, Goddard, & Tschannen-Moran, 2007;Hargreaves & Fullan, 2012;Moolenear, 2012;Odden, 2011). Teachers are emerging from the isolation of their classrooms as a matter of course, and familiarity with colleagues broadens a teacher's knowledge of other teachers' strengths and weaknesses.…”

Principal Leadership and the Implementation of a District Instructional Coaching Framework

“…Effective teacher professional development, defined by Odden (2011) as " [producing] change in teachers' classroom-based instructional practice, which can be linked to improvements in student learning" (p.97) is known to be an important element in increasing student achievement and closing achievement gaps. A 2004 report released by The Teaching Commission (2004) recognizes the urgency for good professional development and states that professional development should be "aligned with state and district goals and standards for student learning, and should become an everyday part of the school schedule rather than be conducted as a set of ad hoc events" (p. 49).…”
