Carnegie Knowledge Network Webinar Series
In a recent knowledge brief, Susanna Loeb and Jason Grissom note that policymakers are beginning to consider how to use student test scores to assess principal effectiveness. Value-added measures may provide information about how schools are doing, but are they convincing measures of the causal effect of the principal on student learning? Loeb and Grissom address this question and provide guidance on understanding how principals influence student outcomes and address implications for the design of new principal evaluation systems.
In this webinar, Susanna Loeb, Barnett Family Professor of Education at Stanford University, will present key findings on what is known about the use of value-added measures for principal evaluation and will be available to answer your questions on the topic.
