Paul T. von Hippel; Laura Bellows – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2020
At least sixteen US states have taken steps toward holding teacher preparation programs (TPPs) accountable for teacher value-added to student test scores.

Temkin, Deborah; Thompson, Joy A.; Gabriel, Alex; Fulks, Emily; Sun, Sarah; Rodriguez, Yosmary – Phi Delta Kappan, 2021
As states consider non-academic measures of school quality for their accountability plans under the Every Student Succeeds Act, few are choosing to focus on the school climate in which students learn. That's not a surprise, given concerns about the validity and usefulness of existing climate surveys. However, the authors argue, a recent study…

Jinyong Hahn; John D. Singleton; Nese Yildiz – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2023
Panel or grouped data are often used to allow for unobserved individual heterogeneity in econometric models via fixed effects. In this paper, we discuss identification of a panel data model in which the unobserved heterogeneity both enters additively and interacts with treatment variables. We present identification and estimation methods for…

Hillman, Nicholas W.; Hicklin Fryar, Alisa; Crespín-Trujillo, Valerie – American Educational Research Journal, 2018
Today, 35 states use performance-based funding models tying appropriations directly to educational outcomes.

We examine how two of the most robust performance funding states--Tennessee and Ohio--responded…
