Watch video of Dr. Dale Ballou’s Ph.D. student research seminar on value-added assessment in education. The question to be debated is that the state of Tennessee should require local education agencies to use value-added measures of teacher performance for high-stakes personnel decisions, including retention, licensure, and compensation. Faculty and students who attended were asked to judge the debate. There will also be a 20-25 minute period following the debate in which members of the audience asked questions of the debaters, offer feedback, etc. Follow Vanderbilt on Twitter: https://twitter.com/vanderbiltu, on Instagram: http://instagram.com/vanderbiltu and on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vanderbilt.
