description This month's Conversation Currents is about teacher performance assessments. In the past few years, almost every state in the nation has implemented some form of performance assessment to evaluate teachers. John Barker brings to CPS his experience with the challenges of an urban school district through his work in Memphis as both Chief of Staff to the district's superintendent and as head of Research, Evaluation, Assessment, and Student Information for five years. In Memphis, Barker oversaw the district's Data Dashboard, which measures progress against the district's strategic goals. Barker holds a PhD in Education and Human Development, a master's degree in Public Policy, and comes to Chicago as a nationally recognized thought leader in public education. Mark Conley is a professor at the University of Memphis in Tennessee. He conducts research on teacher education policy and practice, adolescent literacy, assessment, tutoring via face-to- face and computer-mediated artificial intelligence, all within interdisciplinary contexts. Prior to moving to Tennessee, he was an associate professor at Michigan State University.
