You do however get to control who your engineers are. It's rather difficult for a teacher to "fire" a student.

- crusso 14y agoI don't get to control the projects sent my way. I'm not allowed to "fire" customers with difficult expectations. Hell, I've only ever fired one engineer in a 20+ year career, and that was because he was the equivalent of a violent student whom you would expel and send to juvi. Why is it so hard to deal with the information as presented in the study. Fine, question the details or methods of the study. Offer counter evidence. The study presented evidence that good teachers can have a noticeable and measurable level of control on the output of their students. Why is dealing with evidence not the central part of this discussion?
- nnnnnnnninnnnnn 14y agoI'm not sure why you're talking about "firing" customers. That might be the equivalent of teachers firing student's parents? Anyways, what I was trying to get at is that people working at a company choose to work there, MOST of the time they are doing something they are good at. Compare this to students, teachers do not get to choose their students from a set of applicants. Also oftentimes students do not see the benefit of being in school. I am not opposed to the study, I was only addressing the point you made about comparing a school to your company. I do not think it is a very good comparison.
