@realsaramerica We do have 2 make the case 4 supporting Master degree for certification. No predictive value in quality though. #ctedreform

@realsaramerica Why doesn't it make sense to tie promotion of salary or certification to evaluation? good teachers recognized. #ctedreform

@Eduflack @kcough I agree. won't address systemic issues. My point was achievement measured using new test no one has yet to see. Scary.

@katieregan88 I've been using screencasts to assess student writing all semester but jing or screencast-o-matic still work better. #engchat

@Eduflack I wish they would have removed the subject area major for P-6 tchrs. We can't add more classes on teaching reading and math
Greg McVerrySupport a GPA hike (even though its predictive value is very low), the renewable tenure, and new certifications. @Eduflack

@Eduflack @kcough Here I agree. Its just the #ccss and the evaluation systems arent even out yet. Will they even work? We don't know.
