Should Students Grade Their Teachers

“Education is just starting to figure out what measurement actually means, five years ago we thought test scores were the answer to everything. We’re offering a way to focus on the right metrics.” said Aaron Feuer, Panorama’s co-founder and chief executive. Students spend most of the time with their teachers so why not have students grade their teachers.

Schools need to listen to their students and start to value students opinions.

Teachers build students so it is very important that a student is built right with the right leader they can build a even better leader. The teacher influence on the students is one of the most important things. The teacher 's behavior in a classroom is what students see and learn from.
