Obama defends the administration's push for teacher evaluations linked to student performance

Simply put the White House wants more accountability for teachers and supports evaluating teachers based on student performance. "The biggest single thing we can do is to get great teachers into struggling schools -- whatever it takes -- including incentive pay and other ideas," Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in a policy speech on Tuesday.

"If we know how much students are gaining each year, if we know how much they're improving, we will know which teachers and principals are succeeding, which ones need more support and help and which ones simply are not getting the job done," Duncan said.

The unions, on the other hand, argue that there is no one measurement that can successfully evaluate teacher performance and that the Obama agenda sets unfair standards for teachers.
