A good teacher do so much more than an average teacher. I remember I was in school, and had a few good teachers. They are brilliant. They teach well, you learn faster, and you get hooked with the subject. My chemistry teacher on the other hand was mediocre, I had no interests in chemistry at all, and I did really bad. There were many students in my class did well in Chemistry, and many of us did well in Physics. The difference is teaching. Of course, social aspects is important, when you can have everything, having everything is the best you should aim for.
The study of this shows a solution to schools which couldn't attract good teachers due to location, fund or something else, it is not applicable to general schools and general teaching.
- abhinav22 6y agoYou raise valid points that I agree with. Perhaps to better rephrase, assuming an adequate level of teaching ability, in person teaching or well constructed digital sessions where the social aspect is not removed, is likely more effective than simply listening to the best teachers but in a less social manner. Our goal should be to increase the baseline level of quality for teachers and not just concentrate teaching to a select few orators who broadcast to large groups. My original comment was partly in response to another comment on this page, so apologize if it is a bit tangent to the study at hand
