- W161035250 abstract "A large literature finds substantial variation in teachers’ effects on student achievement. Moreover, this research finds that little of this variation in effectiveness can be explained by traditional measures of quality, such as years of teaching experience. There remains, however, a gap in our understanding of how the choice of outcome measure—and teachers’ own stake in the test outcome—affects inferences about teacher quality. For example, test-based accountability policies may incentivize teachers to focus efforts on short-term, test-specific skills which may not generalize to other tests. In this paper, we use data from a large urban school district to estimate teacher effects on highand low-stakes tests of the same content areas. We find that: (1) teacher effects are 15-31% larger on the high-stakes test, (2) teacher effects on the high-stakes test are only a modest predictor of effectiveness on the low-stakes test, (3) returns to experience differ across tests in ways consistent with teachers’ incentives to invest early in teaching skills and content specific to the high-stakes test, and (4) teacher effects on the high-stakes test decay at a faster rate than those on the low-stakes test. ∗We would like to thank the Houston Independent School District for providing necessary data, and the IES pre-doctoral training program for providing research support. Jennings received additional support for this project from IES-AERA and Spencer Foundation dissertation fellowships. Rachel Cole provided expert research assistance. We thank seminar participants at NYU, the University of Notre Dame, Stanford University, and the Institute for Research on Poverty Summer Workshop for useful feedback. Dan McCaffrey, Doug Harris, Susanna Loeb, Sean Reardon, and Matthew Wiswall provided especially helpful comments on an earlier draft. All remaining errors are our own. †Contact author.
