Abstract	Federal policy now focuses on teacher "effectiveness" rather than teacher "quality" as its central policy concern. Rather than measuring inputs, the new focus looks to measure the outcomes of a teacher's work--that is, the extent to which the educator has met crucial student needs, such as improved student achievement. As states move to take a more active role in teacher evaluation, they face challenges that include overcoming the limits of what student assessment data can say about teacher performance; connecting test scores to teachers who teach untested subjects; ensuring evaluator quality; and promoting team-based, as opposed to individual, accountability. This issue addresses assessment and educational policy. (As Provided).
