Dialogue: 0,0:02:43.17,0:02:46.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So there's really only one area where we're near the top,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.25,0:02:48.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that's in failing to give our teachers

Dialogue: 0,0:02:58.76,0:03:02.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, they rank number one across the board,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.02,0:03:08.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and one of the keys to Shanghai's incredible success

Dialogue: 0,0:03:12.02,0:03:14.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They made sure that younger teachers
Dialogue: 0,0:03:14.35,0:03:18.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,get a chance to watch master teachers at work.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.02,0:03:20.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They have weekly study groups,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.62,0:03:33.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,You might ask, why is a system like this so important?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:33.32,0:03:36.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It's because there's so much variation
Dialogue: 0,0:03:36.18,0:03:38.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in the teaching profession.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:38.26,0:03:42.41,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Some teachers are far more effective than others.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.41,0:03:45.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In fact, there are teachers throughout the country

Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.67,0:04:00.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we need a system that helps all our teachers

Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.59,0:04:05.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What would that system look like?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.19,0:04:07.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well, to find out, our foundation

Dialogue: 0,0:04:20.16,0:04:23.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and rate how they did on a range of practices.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:23.75,0:04:25.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For example, did they ask their students
Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.59,0:04:27.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,challenging questions?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:27.68,0:04:31.100,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Did they find multiple ways to explain an idea?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.100,0:04:36.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We also had students fill out surveys with questions like,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:38.21,0:04:40.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,when the class understands a lesson?"

Dialogue: 0,0:04:43.92,0:04:46.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And what we found is very exciting.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:46.75,0:04:50.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,First, the teachers who did well on these observations
Dialogue: 0,0:04:50.87,0:04:53.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had far better student outcomes.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.32,0:04:56.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it tells us we're asking the right questions.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.58,0:04:59.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And second, teachers in the program told us
Dialogue: 0,0:04:59.39,0:05:02.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that these videos and these surveys from the students
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.94,0:05:05.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,were very helpful diagnostic tools,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:05.63,0:05:08.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because they pointed to specific places
Dialogue: 0,0:05:08.26,0:05:10.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where they can improve.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.28,0:05:14.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I want to show you what this video component of MET

Dialogue: 0,0:05:44.11,0:05:46.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think that there is a difference for teachers

Dialogue: 0,0:06:30.25,0:06:33.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So it really has been a simple
Dialogue: 0,0:06:33.14,0:06:35.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but powerful tool in my own reflection.

Dialogue: 0,0:06:59.24,0:07:02.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and methodology and classroom management,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:02.51,0:07:06.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and just all of those different facets of the classroom.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:06.02,0:07:08.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm glad that we've actually done the process before
Dialogue: 0,0:07:08.69,0:07:11.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we can kind of compare what works, what doesn't.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:11.22,0:07:14.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think that video exposes
Dialogue: 0,0:07:14.54,0:07:18.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so much of what's intrinsic to us as teachers
Dialogue: 0,0:07:18.03,0:07:21.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in ways that help us learn and help us understand,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:21.18,0:07:23.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then help our broader communities understand

Dialogue: 0,0:07:27.63,0:07:31.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I think it is a way to exemplify and illustrate
Dialogue: 0,0:07:31.76,0:07:34.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,things that we cannot convey in a lesson plan,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:34.68,0:07:36.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,things you cannot convey in a standard,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:36.83,0:07:39.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,things that you cannot even sometimes convey
Dialogue: 0,0:07:39.06,0:07:41.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in a book of pedagogy.

Dialogue: 0,0:07:56.16,0:07:58.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to look something like that.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:58.84,0:08:01.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But we still have more work to do.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:01.46,0:08:04.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Diagnosing areas where a teacher needs to improve
Dialogue: 0,0:08:04.18,0:08:06.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is only half the battle.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:06.77,0:08:09.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We also have to give them the tools they need
Dialogue: 0,0:08:09.15,0:08:11.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to act on the diagnosis.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:11.65,0:08:13.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you learn that you need to improve

Dialogue: 0,0:08:15.31,0:08:17.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you should be able to watch a video
Dialogue: 0,0:08:17.81,0:08:21.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the best person in the world teaching fractions.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:21.53,0:08:24.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So building this complete teacher feedback
Dialogue: 0,0:08:24.27,0:08:27.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and improvement system won't be easy.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:27.38,0:08:29.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For example, I know some teachers
Dialogue: 0,0:08:29.39,0:08:31.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,aren't immediately comfortable with the idea
Dialogue: 0,0:08:31.86,0:08:34.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of a camera in the classroom.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:34.66,0:08:37.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's understandable, but our experience with MET
Dialogue: 0,0:08:37.97,0:08:41.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,suggests that if teachers manage the process,
Dialogue: 0,0:08:41.42,0:08:43.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,if they collect video in their own classrooms,
Dialogue: 0,0:08:43.90,0:08:46.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they pick the lessons they want to submit,
Dialogue: 0,0:08:46.88,0:08:50.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a lot of them will be eager to participate.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:50.64,0:08:53.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Building this system will also require
Dialogue: 0,0:08:53.59,0:08:56.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a considerable investment.
Dialogue: 0,0:08:56.62,0:08:59.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Our foundation estimates that it could cost
Dialogue: 0,0:08:59.97,0:09:02.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,up to five billion dollars.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:02.13,0:09:06.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now that's a big number, but to put it in perspective,
Dialogue: 0,0:09:06.48,0:09:08.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's less than two percent
Dialogue: 0,0:09:08.47,0:09:12.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of what we spend every year on teacher salaries.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:12.77,0:09:16.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The impact for teachers would be phenomenal.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:16.08,0:09:20.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We would finally have a way to give them feedback,
Dialogue: 0,0:09:20.04,0:09:22.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as well as the means to act on it.
Dialogue: 0,0:09:22.74,0:09:23.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But this system would have

Dialogue: 0,0:09:27.71,0:09:30.88,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It would put us on a path to making sure
