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.
