Federal policymakers, the study will examine the implementation of these activities with attention to implementation challenges, the role of State and local context, and the roles of the Federal programs designed to foster these activities.

The planned data collection will serve four objectives:

1. To examine how States and districts analyze the distribution of teacher quality, plan actions to address inequities, and monitor progress.

2. To examine how States and districts are changing their measures of teacher quality, and to understand their experiences in doing so.

3. To examine State and local actions to improve teacher quality for disadvantaged students (i.e., students in high-poverty or high-minority schools).

4. To describe the perceived contributions of Federal programs to State and local actions aimed at improving the quality of teachers for disadvantaged students, and how State and local contexts mediate these contributions.

To address these objectives, our design includes telephone interviews with State education agencies and local education agencies.
