Resumo

Pesquisadores e legisladores nos Estados Unidos e em outros países buscam identificar as qualidades de ensino associadas ao aumento do desempenho acadêmico de alunos do ensino fundamental e médio por meio de estudos de eficácia. No entanto, a qualidade do ensino varia de acordo com o conteúdo acadêmico e os contextos sociais, envolve múltiplos participantes e requer uma variedade de habilidades, conhecimentos e disposições. Neste ensaio, abordamos a tensão inescapável entre complexidade e escala na pesquisa sobre a eficácia do ensino. Fornecemos cinco recomendações para projetistas e analistas de estudo para gerenciar essa tensão e melhorar a pesquisa sobre eficácia, alavancando nossas experiências recentes como os primeiros analistas externos do estudo Measures of Effective Teaching (MET). Nossas recomendações abordam a estrutura conceitual, a medição do ensino (por exemplo, protocolos de observação, pesquisas com estudantes), amostragem, vídeo em sala de aula e o uso e interpretação de modelos de valor agregado.
