Short Description

What should be the criteria for a "highly qualified teacher" beyond meeting the minimum teacher certification expectations? Both the definition of highly qualified and the empirical evidence supporting its designation lack clear consensus among researchers, state department of education officials, and teacher preparation providers. This presentation offers five specific moves that define highly qualified teaching using current best practices research that impacts student achievement. The intent in selecting these five “moves” was to articulate a distinct set of teaching best practices that:

These moves can be integrated seamlessly into any learning experience ranging from a single day lesson plan to a multi-day instructional unit. As with other “research-based best practices,” their combined impact on student achievement consistently produces the greatest overall effect size. Beyond student outcomes, these highly qualified teaching moves provide a clear roadmap to teaching success, help simplify the definition of highly qualified, and can be readily observed by lead teachers, instructional coaches, and supervisors. The deliberate use of these identified highly qualified practices in the instructional planning process in isolation or collectively can ensure that students are given the best opportunity to maximize their academic success as well as provide a streamlined process for preparing teaching candidates to become highly qualified on a consistent basis.
