In this paper we will examine how children view their future. Intergenerational relations are at the core of sustainable development.

Recently, a number of school districts have begun using measures of teachers' contributions to student test scores or teacher "value added" to determine salaries and other monetary rewards. In this paper we investigate the precision of value-added measures by analyzing their inter-temporal stability. We find that these measures of…

Yates, Anne – Professional Development in Education, 2012
Professional learning to embed educational reform may need to take account of the stage of the reform rather than previous teaching experience. As reforms move to the embedding phase, some teachers have become more expert in executing the reform than others and may be well placed to provide professional learning. In 2007, the New Zealand Ministry…
