Perhaps, but the point is that the value-added statistics that have been used (in trials, I don't know if this was ever into a formal metric with consequence) to measure how much students' grades or test scores are improved by a particular teacher's performance show almost as large of a supposed effect of the teacher on height, not height on grades.
- jedberg 7y agoThe study says that the measure of teacher performance is correlated to student height. The measure of teacher performance is supposed to be correlated to student success. What I'm saying is that if student success is already correlated to student height, then anything that measures student success will also measure student height.
- JamesBarney 7y agoWhile what you say so true if they're ere just measuring student height/success. But they're not measuring student height/success they're measuring the effect of teachers on student success/height over time. And what you said isn't true of that measure.
- jedberg 7y agoStudent success over time is correlated to student height. It would be impossible to measure one without measuring the other.
