Abstract | The Louisiana edition of the National Council on Teacher Quality's (NCTQ's) 2009 "State Teacher Policy Yearbook" is the third annual look at state policies impacting the teaching profession. It is hoped that this report will help focus attention on areas where state policymakers can make changes that will have a positive impact on teacher quality and student achievement. The 2009 "Yearbook" presents a comprehensive analysis of state teacher policies. This evaluation is organized in five areas encompassing 33 goals. Broadly, these goals examine the impact of state policy on: (1) delivering well-prepared teachers; (2) expanding the teaching pool; (3) identifying effective teachers; (4) retaining those deemed effective; and (5) exiting those deemed ineffective. Louisiana has an overall "Yearbook" grade of C- for 2009. Louisiana's major policy strengths include: (1) Ensures that middle school teachers are prepared to teach appropriate grade-level content; (2) Articulates consequences for teachers with unsatisfactory evaluations; (3) Supports differential pay in high-needs schools and shortage subjects; and (4) Places no restrictions on alternate route usage or providers. Louisiana's major policy weaknesses include: (1) Awards tenure virtually automatically; (2) Fails to make evidence of student learning the preponderant criterion in teacher evaluations; (3) Lacks an efficient termination process for ineffective teachers; and (4) Does not ensure that elementary teachers are well prepared to teach mathematics. Detailed rationale for each area and corresponding goal is appended. (Contains 124 figures.) [For the national summary, see ED511872.] (ERIC). |
