Dr. William Allan Kritsonis - Factors that Impact Teacher Retention PPT.
This document discusses factors that impact teacher retention in the United States. It finds that schools with higher proportions of minority and low-income students, as well as urban schools, experience higher rates of teacher attrition. Reasons for leaving include inadequate pay, lack of career advancement opportunities, student discipline issues, and poor working conditions. The document recommends improving teacher compensation, providing more support through mentoring programs, and offering professional development and career flexibility options to help boost retention.
Need For Change sidonye williams
America's education system is in need of change according to recent data. Graduation rates peaked in the late 1960s at 80% but have since declined by 4-5 percentage points. Male graduation rates have declined nearly 7% over the past 40 years. Title 1 schools are more likely to have less experienced, underqualified teachers who are paid less. Recent studies have found no connection between teacher effectiveness and advanced degrees. High teacher turnover rates are costly for districts and damaging to student development. A large percentage of students will lack critical workforce skills like teamwork and communication.

1. The document outlines several issues with the current state of education in India, including a lack of infrastructure in schools, poor learning outcomes, teacher shortages, and social/language barriers.
2. It proposes a distance education model to help address these challenges by using technology like projectors, screens, and a centralized computer network to deliver standardized lessons from expert teachers to multiple schools simultaneously.
3. This could help reduce costs by lowering infrastructure and teacher requirements while improving access to quality education across different regions.

The document summarizes test score data and goals of a homework club program at the MLK Center. Current test data shows that while black students, students with disabilities, and economically disadvantaged students are improving in math and language arts, their scores remain below the rest of the school. The program aims to improve academic performance, attendance, and graduation rates through homework help, tutoring, academic support, and recreational activities. Support is sought from parents, teachers, recreation staff, and community members.

The document discusses challenges facing primary education in India. It notes that 58% of children do not complete primary education, and according to a 2012 report, 10 crore children are two or more years below their grade level. Some key challenges are a lack of teachers and oversight of existing teachers, as well as socio-cultural barriers like discrimination and child labor. Barriers to education include psychological, financial, facility, logistical, and quality issues. Means to overcome these include nationwide campaigns, enforcing laws against child labor, promoting gender equality, providing free education, improving school facilities, electrifying rural areas, and providing supplies to students, among other strategies.

This document discusses challenges faced by young people from early years through university. It finds that 1 in 5 Australian children start school developmentally vulnerable, particularly in academic domains. Early disadvantage continues as rural and remote students have lower school attendance rates. Barriers to success include low socioeconomic status, gender bias, and a lack of dedicated career advice. There is often a mismatch between young people's career aspirations and the training they undertake. The document recommends improving early education, implementing effective career education models, helping all learners see progression, developing alternative entry and study models, and better integrating school and higher education.

This document discusses several issues with primary education in rural areas of India and proposes solutions. It notes high dropout rates, large student-teacher ratios, and teacher absenteeism as problems. It also notes that rural areas and government schools have particularly low quality of education. Several solutions are proposed, including: 1) A "passive nationalism" program that recruits retired professionals as mentors to improve education; 2) A "Teach for India" model using unemployed graduates as teachers with a stipend; 3) Improving infrastructure with computers and educational TV programs; 4) Using success stories as inspiration; 5) Incentivizing actual learning rather than just enrollment; and 6) A new incentive system rewarding students, teachers and families for

Issues related to inclusion & provisions for resulution by Garima Tandon
This document discusses issues related to inclusion in education and provisions to resolve them. It identifies eight key barriers to inclusion: societal attitudes, physical barriers, rigid curriculums, untrained teachers, debates around equality vs equity, lack of funding, centralized education systems, and exclusionary policies. It then outlines six provisions to promote inclusion: modifying physical infrastructure, emphasizing cooperation over competition, flexible curriculums, peer support, proper teacher training, and focusing on equity rather than equality in classrooms. Overall, the document analyzes both challenges and solutions for creating more inclusive education systems.
Education - Kumar Gaurav IIM Indore
The document proposes a solution to increase access to primary education for masses by establishing a chain of community-owned primary schools. The key aspects of the proposed model include fractional ownership of schools by private players, government, microfinance organizations and local community; provision of education loans by microfinance organizations; and ensuring quality, affordable education through public-private partnerships. The model aims to develop a self-sustaining cycle of education and income generation within communities.

Cluster schools are an effective way to improve rural primary education quality while remaining cost-effective. Schools are grouped into clusters centered around a central school. This allows for shared resources between schools, regular teacher meetings and training, and improved accountability. Improved primary education addresses poverty by increasing literacy, numeracy, access to information, and earning potential. The document advocates implementing a cluster school model focused on rural areas, with an emphasis on quality over quantity and ensuring adequate funding and resources are available.
10 11 State Of School Address
This document summarizes the state of Wildwood Elementary for the 2010-2011 school year. It outlines the school and district's mission statements, which focus on helping students achieve their potential. It then discusses 4 strategic directions for the school: 1) increasing student achievement, 2) ensuring equity and equal opportunity, 3) strengthening communication between the school and community, and 4) ensuring accountability. For each direction, it lists goals and initiatives the school will undertake to improve performance in that area, such as implementing pre-AP classes, expanding outreach, and analyzing student data to monitor performance.
Revamping Private Schools
This document outlines the key aims and suggestions of the Private Educational Institutions Regulatory Authority (PEIRA). The aims of PEIRA include implementing a uniform curriculum, setting the academic calendar and tuition fees, establishing teacher qualifications, and promoting extracurricular activities. Suggestions include setting standard school hours from 9:30am to 3pm throughout the year to reduce traffic, requiring teachers to have a minimum of a bachelor's degree to ensure quality education, and improving PEIRA's public image and planning/implementation of initiatives. Stakeholders are invited to provide feedback on the proposals within 7 days.
Solutions for Our Education Problem

It then proposes solutions such as making education more practical, improving student-teacher relationships, utilizing technology properly, spending education budgets effectively, changing English teaching methods, motivating students, providing free education to the needy, educating parents, training teachers, making curriculums more dynamic, and focusing on rural education. The presentation was authored by Ashak Zahin Hasan.
NKYEC Attendance Matters Presentation 11-8-2013
The Northern Kentucky Education Council works to align education initiatives across six counties in Northern Kentucky. It aims to ensure successful transitions for students from birth through career. One of its key regional strategies is to address chronic absenteeism, which is defined as missing 10% or more of the school year. Over 2,300 elementary students in the region missed this threshold in the 2011-2012 school year. The document discusses convening local schools to review attendance data and strategies, and having an Action Team collaborate with pilot schools to track data, analyze root causes, and share effective approaches to reduce chronic absenteeism in the region.

This document is the 2007-2008 state of the school address for Northwood Elementary in the Puyallup School District. It discusses the district's mission to challenge students academically and creatively. It also outlines the school's mission to provide quality instruction and encourage lifelong learning. The address then summarizes the district's strategic directions of student achievement, equity and equal opportunity, effective communication, and accountability. It lists goals under each strategic direction and requests examples of how the school is working to achieve these goals.
Public schools
Public schools have both advantages and disadvantages. The key advantages are that they are less expensive than private schools, promote diversity among students, and are required to provide certain support services. However, public schools also have large class sizes, face funding disparities between rich and poor districts, and subject students to frequent standardized testing. While some think private schools lead to better academic performance, research shows public and private school student achievement is largely comparable.
TROJANS
The document proposes a model to improve primary education in rural India by establishing a central committee. Key issues with primary education currently include poor teacher quality and attendance, lack of infrastructure like drinking water and toilets, and rote learning methods. The committee would oversee surveys of local areas, recruitment of qualified teachers, and infrastructure development. It would receive annual funding from the government and corporations. Expected impacts include increased employment, a stronger economy through an educated population, higher levels of social equality, and greater access to higher education opportunities. Implementation risks include lack of interest in teaching as a profession and integrating the model within existing government systems and institutions.

Private and public schools were compared based on facilities, class size, teaching, budgets, and administrative support. Private schools generally have smaller class sizes which allows for more individual attention. Public school teachers are often not as well paid and have low retention rates due to low starting salaries and small annual increases. Public school budgets depend heavily on local property taxes, making them subject to fiscal and political pressures. Public school systems also tend to have larger, more bureaucratic administrations that can slow down decision making. In conclusion, both public and private schools have advantages and disadvantages, so parents must decide which option best suits their needs.
Milyakburra strong start bright futures1
Milyakburra School aims to provide high quality education for students from early childhood through senior years. Key goals include developing literacy and numeracy skills, engaging students through culturally sensitive learning, and increasing attendance rates. Challenges to education in the remote community include lack of infrastructure, services, and opportunities that limit learning; however, partnerships and a whole-school approach support student development.
Scaling Innovation: High Expectations, No Excuses - Pankaj Jain, Gyanshala
Gyan Shala aims to provide high quality school education to poor children in India at a highly cost-effective price. It currently educates over 30,000 students across several states in India through programs in government schools and slum areas. Gyan Shala achieves better learning outcomes than government schools while keeping costs less than 1/4th through innovations like extensive teacher training, high-quality learning materials, and standardized classroom processes focused on student learning. Independent studies have validated Gyan Shala's success in improving educational quality on a large scale at low cost.
FUNCTIONAL EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENT AS AN ANTEDOTE TO PO...
Education of persons with visual impairment in Nigeria is functional education in that literacy education is designed alongside with functional skills which include vocational skills. However, the present educational system is observed to be producing graduates who solely depend on white colar jobs rather than practicing vocational skills that could meet their ends, thus, increasing unemployment rate and poverty in the country. This study takes a look at the situation from grass root level of education by examining the perspective of the primary school teachers towards this matter. Using a descriptive survey approach, twenty five teachers were randomly selected from five selected primary schools for children with visual impairment across Oyo State. The findings revealed that majority of the teachers agreed that children with visual impairment can earn good living from their vocational skills later in life, but 36% of the teachers are not interested to encourage the pupils to learn the skills. Factors such as lack of suitable market for vocational products, negative societal attitude to products made by persons with visual impairment, and lack of human and material resources and well-equipped vocational workshops in schools are the reasons for their responses. One of the recommendations made is that stakeholders in the country and international donors should assist in providing well-equipped vocational workshops in all primary schools for children with visual impairment in the state. Schools are also requested to collaborate with rehabilitation workshops to organize periodical exhibition and invite members of the public, in order to create a marketing platform for their products. Finally, primary school teachers are advised to encourage pupils with visual impairment to learn various vocational skills as much as they have the capacity to do so in order to prepare them for the challenges ahead.
A Guide for School Districts: Exploring Alternative Measures of Student Learn...
Districts across the country play a crucial role in ensuring schools effectively serve students and families. Beyond federal requirements in the Every Student Succeeds Act and state-level accountability systems, locally developed school performance frameworks are a key lever for holding schools accountable, particularly for student learning and wellness.
Today — with unfamiliar school configurations and unknown impacts on student outcomes — it is more important than ever that districts are diligent about assessing schools’ impact on students. But the ways that districts have done so in the past may no longer be appropriate. And districts that previously did not engage in school-level performance assessments now have a new incentive to do so.
This toolkit is a resource to help districts adapt existing school performance frameworks to the current moment or create new ones. These slides identify and walk through the fundamental questions districts need to consider in designing school performance frameworks that acknowledge the challenges that schools and students are facing, as well as a continued need to monitor performance and continuously improve.

The document discusses implementing postmodern strategic planning in educational organizations. It argues that postmodernism encourages flexible, practical strategic plans tailored to each organization. Traditional "one size fits all" strategic planning based on modernism is criticized for being too rigid. The author advocates that educational leaders abandon universal standards and instead develop innovative strategies based on their unique organizational needs and contexts. Strategic plans should empower self-learning and make schools learning communities. Data should be considered individually for each organization rather than driving standardized decisions. Overall, the document promotes postmodern strategic planning as a way to better guide educational organizations in the 21st century.

The document discusses implementing postmodern strategic planning in educational organizations. It argues that postmodernism encourages flexible, practical strategic plans tailored to each organization. Traditional "one size fits all" strategic planning based on modernism is criticized for being too rigid. The author advocates that educational leaders abandon universal standards and instead develop innovative strategies based on their unique organizational needs and contexts. Strategic plans should empower self-learning and make schools learning communities. Data should be considered individually for each organization rather than driving standardized decisions. Overall, the document promotes postmodern strategic planning as a way to better guide educational organizations in the 21st century.

Sexual Harassment By School Employees
Title IX prohibits sexual harassment of students in schools. Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature that denies or limits a student's ability to participate in or benefit from a school program. Schools are responsible for addressing two types of sexual harassment - quid pro quo harassment, where a student faces retaliation for refusing sexual advances, and creating a hostile environment through severe or pervasive conduct of a sexual nature. When investigating complaints of sexual harassment, schools must consider factors such as the nature of the conduct, context, and credibility of students involved to determine if Title IX was violated.

Possible Strategies For Finding Teachers
Many states and school districts are scrambling to find teachers. Growing student enrollments, a shrinking supply of individuals choosing to teach, escalating teacher retirements, and high turnover of new teachers have brought the teacher recruitment challenge to a point of impending crisis. Gone are the days of the college fair magically bringing new teachers to fill classrooms. The school recruiter today pulls out of a hat assorted incentives and tactics to lure candidates: signing bonuses, mortgage reductions, on-site childcare, restaurant discounts, high tech outreach efforts, and overseas recruiting. In addition, programs to lure retirees, mid-career changers, substitutes, and military veterans are now on the palette of possible strategies for finding teachers.
Although teacher shortages affect schools and districts across the country to varying degrees, urban districts are facing unique challenges, owing to rapidly growing student enrollments, accelerating rates of teacher retirement, class size reduction initiatives, and demanding working conditions. Urban schools nationwide educate between 39% and 50% of the students who are not proficient in English, about 52% of minority students, and 43% of the country's low-income students.
Teacher quality is emerging as one of the foremost concerns of school and university educators, parents, professional organizations, foundations, state education officials, business leaders, and legislators across the country. Roughly nine out of ten Americans believe that the best way to raise student achievement is to provide a qualified teacher for every classroom.
Developing Pathways into Teaching
An increasing number of districts are trying to address teacher shortages by "expanding the pipeline," i.e., offering nontraditional routes into the profession to individuals from diverse backgrounds and fields. A new survey asked districts whether and how they encourage individuals interested in teaching to enter the profession through alternative means.
Attracting a Broader Pool of Students
A fair number of colleges offer programs specifically for working adults seeking to become classroom teachers. Slightly less than half offer alternative licensure programs, while a smaller number offer apprenticeship/internship programs. About the same percentage sponsor paraeducator to teacher programs. In recognition of the many "out of class" demands that students entering teacher preparation programs now have, many schools, colleges, and departments of education offer flexible course scheduling. The survey asked respondents what percentage of teacher preparation program requirements can be completed via part-time, evening, weekend, summer, off-campus, and/or telecommunications classes.

Exuberance
The document discusses challenges facing the education system in India and proposes a clustered schooling system as a solution. It notes that primary education suffers from inadequate resources and poor management. It then outlines issues like lack of encouragement for diverse talents, punitive teaching methods, and lack of dedication among teachers. The proposed solution is to group 6-11 schools together in a cluster with a central school to improve quality through regular teacher meetings, trainings, and accountability. The clustered approach was successfully implemented in Thailand. It has the potential to boost employment and skills over the long run if challenges around coordination, supervision, and acceptance are adequately addressed.
Creating a shared vision project
The document outlines a plan to improve equity in the Mercer Area School District through collaboration and data-driven decision making. It begins with forming an Equity Audit Team to analyze student achievement, program enrollment, and attitudes. Their findings show disparities between student groups. To address this, the plan calls for:
1. Communicating a shared district vision of preparing all students for success.
2. Regular data collection and shared leadership between stakeholders to guide decisions.
3. Developing an Action Team for Partnerships to coordinate family/community involvement.
4. Implementing a framework that leads change through auditing practices, developing goals, empowering stakeholders, and ongoing reflection.

The document discusses issues in the secondary education system in India, focusing on defective examination systems and lack of guidance and counseling. It outlines problems with the current exam-focused system such as an emphasis on rote learning and subjective evaluation. Suggestions are provided such as reforming exams to evaluate understanding and including practical components. Barriers to effective guidance counseling like lack of funding, professionals and parental support are also examined. The document argues education must address these exam and career guidance issues to better support students.
Challangers
This document provides details about a team proposing solutions to enhance primary education quality in India. It outlines shortcomings in the existing system such as untrained teachers, lack of infrastructure and hygiene issues. The team proposes innovative solutions like improving school facilities and infrastructure, ensuring drinking water and toilet access, strengthening teacher training, redesigning curriculum and increasing community involvement. The solutions aim to enhance learning environments, teacher quality, and make education more relevant and interesting for students. Implementation would involve mobilizing various schemes to improve facilities, intensifying teacher capacity building, and adopting student-centered learning approaches.

The document discusses strategies to support disadvantaged students. It notes that consistent high-quality teaching, a focus on literacy and numeracy skills, targeted interventions monitored through data, and deploying effective staff are important. Individual barriers must be identified early and transition from primary school should address skills gaps. Disadvantaged students should have high profiles, opportunities to develop aspirations, and advice on pathways. Effective parent links should also be established. Funding must be strategically coordinated. There is no single solution and a range of evidence-based strategies tailored to individual schools and students are needed.

Time to Teach: Teacher attendance and time on task in primary schools in Eas...UNICEF Office of Research - Innocenti
- The study investigated factors affecting teacher attendance and time spent teaching in primary schools in Eastern and Southern Africa between 2017-2021.
- It found that on average, 16% of teachers reported being absent from school at least once a week, with absence rates varying by country, school characteristics, and teacher characteristics. Common reasons for absence included health issues, family obligations, distance, and low salaries.
- Education system factors like insufficient training, low salaries, lack of teaching materials, and excessive workload contributed to higher rates of absenteeism and less time spent teaching. Promising interventions included better teacher monitoring, community involvement, and ensuring timely salary payments.Improving The Quality Of Teaching In America
At a time when Americans view improving the quality of education as the most pressing issue confronting the nation, an overwhelming majority of the public considers improving the quality of teaching as the most important way to improve public education. A landmark national opinion poll shows the public strongly believes not only that quality teaching is the basic building block of better schools, but also that better teachers are the key to the American dream, particularly for the nation's most disadvantaged students.
According to the poll, roughly nine out of ten Americans believe the best way to lift student achievement is to ensure a qualified teacher in every classroom. Once the issue of student safety is addressed, the public believes that providing a qualified teacher in every classroom is the most important way to improve education - not standards, textbooks, vouchers, privatization, tests, or school uniforms.
The quality and caliber of teachers was chosen as having the greatest influence on student learning by more than half (56%) of the American people, a choice that was favored over establishing a system of academic standards (29%) or requiring achievement tests in core academic subjects (15%).
When vouchers were pitted as a reform strategy directly against doing what it takes to put a fully qualified teacher in every classroom, the teacher quality agenda won hands down by an 85% to 15% margin. Similarly, doing what it takes to put a qualified teacher in every classroom was preferred over allowing outside for-profit companies to run schools within the public system by a commanding 86% to 14% majority.
America's Teacher Recruitment Challenges
The nation's teaching force is at a demographic crossroads. By 2030, schools will need to hire more than 2.5 million teachers to serve growing student enrollments and to replace the considerable number of current teachers expected to retire in coming years.
There is already a need for teachers in a broad range of subject areas, including mathematics, science, bilingual, and special education. Where education officials face high rates of attrition for beginning teachers, such as in urban schools, the recruitment challenge is even greater.
As national, state, and local policymakers consider new initiatives to meet these challenges, understanding the public's views on teaching is vital. Any proposal, whether designed to expand the pool of prospective teachers, improve the preparation and quality of teacher candidates, strengthen support for novice teachers, or to improve the practice of all teachers at various stages in their careers, will require public support.
What Teachers Give to America
The survey shows that the public knows that teaching gives more back to America than any other profession.

The document summarizes data from a survey of nearly 183,000 public school students in grades 3 through 12 about their experiences with academic rigor. The key findings are:
1) The majority of students feel challenged by their coursework and teachers and believe they must work hard to get good grades, though this decreases as grade level increases.
2) Fewer students feel that the work they do is meaningful or helps them understand the subject. Around 60% agree assignments help them learn.
3) As students progress through grades, fewer feel supported in their learning - only around half of high schoolers feel teachers don't let them give up when work is hard.

advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
