　　It is not entirelyclear whether this experience effect is learning by doing (the more you teach,the more effective you become) or survival of the fittest (those who are notgood at teaching tend to drop out early).

　　From my reading ofthe paper, both effects appear important and there is no simple answer. Thedata do suggest, however, that teacher effectiveness is pretty clear by the endof the second year, so the information to make an informed decision isavailable at that time.

　　The authors alsoinvestigate the contentious issue of racial matching of students and teachers.Here they find strong evidence that minority teachers tend to be more effectivewith minority students. Again, it is unclear whether this is because of a rolemodel effect (students respond better of their own race )or an empathy effect(teachers empathize better with students of their own race )or something elseentirely.

　　The authors also lookat teacher mobility. There is some evidence that teachers who quit teaching orswitch schools tend to be below average in effectiveness. This is consistentwith the survival-of-the-fittest model.
