  In Roundtable Session: Evaluations of Programs Supporting Teachers (Table 11)

Abstract

The purpose of the Teacher Compensation Models and Advanced Teaching Roles Program (ATR) is to allow highly effective classroom teachers (Advanced Teachers) to impact an increased number of students and enable local school administrative units to create innovative compensation models that focus on classroom teacher professional growth. The purpose of the evaluation was twofold: 1) to assist the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDP)I and Public School Units (PSUs) in assessing the academic and instructional impact of ATR programs, as well as their impact on the teaching profession more broadly; and 2) to better understand the implementation of these programs and help identify factors supporting or impeding their success.
