The quality of education is a
determining factor in competitiveness. In order to globally
compete, Mexico would have to raise its standards beyond its
current low achievement. Several innovations at federal and
state levels have been developed to raise the quality of
basic education. One example is Carrera Magisterial (CM),
which is a professional development program that was created
as part of the National Agreement for the Modernization of
Basic Education in 1992. This program is aimed at raising
the quality of basic education through teachers'
professional training, new learning presence in schools, and
improving working and salary conditions this report
evaluates the impact of CM. She shows several important
results. First, teacher's enrollment in the CM program
has a positive impact on learning achievement. Second,
family characteristics are important in explaining
students' achievement. Third, investment in primary
school teachers is most effective when targeted toward
increasing teachers' practical experience and
developing content-specific knowledge. And fourth, students
in schools with a high degree of supervision on the part of
the school principal achieve better scores. |
