New @caldercenter WP w/ Tim Sass. We analyze teacher effectiveness during remote instruction after the onset of COVID-19. We find evidence of increased variance in teacher effectiveness driven by large relative declines for the best in-person teachers. caldercenter.org/publication…

Does devoting more instructional time to math and reading accelerate student learning? New MAPLE research finds no evidence that it improves test scores, instead recommending high-dosage, small-group tutoring as an effective strategy for recovery. t.gsu.edu/4ctPJo5

New multi-state #CTE research from @thomasgoldring & @carly_urban examines the collection of work-based learning data. They find that states are collecting more detailed data, using it to improve programs & making progress in standardizing data collection. t.gsu.edu/3XpPLcA

Why does the free mkt logic fail in education? A long thread below. Very relevant to current #vouchers #ESA debate. You can see the whole paper (ungated) here: edworkingpapers.com/authors/… + journal version here: journals.sagepub.com/stoken/…

The question of whether all students have equal access to effective teachers has proven difficult to answer. New MAPLE research provides evidence on the distribution of teacher quality & assesses how this distribution has changed since the pandemic began. t.gsu.edu/4cgPe1z

Today I released a new paper called “Allocative Skill” with Andrew Caplin, @leth_soren, and @weidmann. We introduce a new way to measure the quality of economic decision-making called the Assignment Game. Play the game here! skillslab.dev/assignment-gam… 1/x
