Fifty Reasons Why Student Achievement Gain Does Not Mean Teacher Effectiveness.
Berk, Ronald A.
Journal of Personnel Evaluation in Education, v1 n4 p345-63 Jul 1988

These factors include: (1) student characteristics; (2) school characteristics; (3) test validity; and (4) pretest-posttest design characteristics. (SLD)
