Los Angeles Times rates city teachers

The Los Angeles Times is publishing an independent analysis of the best and worst teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District using a “value-added” approach that shows wide variation in teacher effectiveness, it reported. The city teachers union is launching a boycott of the newspaper in response, the Times reported.

The newspaper hired the Rand Corporation to conduct a statistical analysis of student scores on standardized tests in math and English over seven years.
