Step 1:<\/b> Sean Corcoran, an economist at New York University, studied the teacher evaluation systems in New York City and Houston.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 2:<\/b> Sean Corcoran found that the mean \u201cmargin of error\u201d of a teacher in New York City was 28 points give or take.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 3: <\/b>The value-added scores fluctuate throughout the years because teachers receive different rankings yearly, (Ravitch 270-271).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 4:<\/b> Because of the fluctuating rates between years, predicting the rating one will receive is nearly impossible because it is unlikely they will get the same rank ( Ravitch 270-271).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Step 5:<\/b> The technique used to measure an individual teacher based on \u201cgrowth models\u201d has proven to be inefficient because there is too much room for error (Ravitch 270-271).<\/p>\n
