- Cousins Jeri Lynn De Bose, Tish Hoover, and Josephine (Joey) Parks looked forward to meeting up during the Christmas holidays to compare notes on the results of midyear teacher evaluations. All were public school teachers in districts scattered over the state. In the pressured search for new levels of teacher accountability demanded by legislators, the state department of education joined 16 other States in implementing a new teacher evaluation system. The goal is to hold teachers account-able for student learning progress in the classroom. Under the guidance of the National Council for Teacher Quality, criteria varies by State, but in most cases, 40 percent of each teacher's accountability score would be based on the principal's evaluation and ranking based on personal observation, 30 percent would be based on personal observation by a master teacher from outside the district, and the Other 30 percent would be based on student test score gains. The state department of education would set a performance goal each school district, and the principal would set a performance goal for each teacher. In preparation, the State conducted intensive training sessions for principals and designated master teachers who would conduct the evaluations based on four class observations per teacher Officials used standardized achievement tests to derive value-added scores that measure student learning over the year. Teacher ratings were 1-5, with I am being the lowest and 5 representing near perfection. The publication of the first year's evaluations stirred interest and controversy, particularly among teachers who worried about the possible long-term effects on job retention and tenure. Now, with the first-year evaluations in hand, the three cousins pored over their experiences. The three represented different types of school systems within the state. Jeri Lynn worked for a metropolitan system in the state capital. The system included many low-income students whose first language was nor English, and several schools within the system were teetering on the brink of State takeover if improvement in student scores didn't materialize this school year. Tish worked in a county System dominated by upper-income residents, and Joey taught in the rural community in which all three grew up. The rural community had high unemployment, and a low percentage of graduates went on to college. As a result, the cousins came to the table with differing teaching experiences. "The numbers are all over the place," Jeri Lynn remarked as she studied the pages. "The whole system is flawed, and they need to make changes," Joey said. "It's too subjective. The principal and master teacher observations are subjective because there are personal factors that affect a true outcome." "Yeah, look at the numbers from your upper-income district," Jeri Lynn said to Tish. "How can 60 percent of the teachers score 5s?' Tish chuckled. "Yeah, lucky us. Our schools are overflowing with children from wealthy families. These are the kids who will apply to Ivy League schools. I can tell you that the principals are going to avoid confrontation on all fronts. No principal is going to give any indication that their students are receiving an education that's less than perfect, and that means cramming the rankings with 5s. They claim a higher level of motivation for students, and thus the selection of an elite team of educators. So with those pressures, I don't think we get personal feedback that is accurate." "At the other end of the spectrum, we have my rural district," Joey said. "The big problem is that the principals know everyone and have longstanding relationships with everyone in the county, so I think scores are based on personal history. We could almost predict who would get high or low scores before the observations. For principals, it can go back as far as 'his daddy and my daddy hated each other in high school, and now I get to evaluate his daughter "I think that in many cases, principals feel pressure to align scores with state expectations. The stare expected my district to have high scores and expected rural schools such as yours to be lower," Tish said. "But isn't that partially offset by lower goals for the rural school distracts responded Joey. "The key to the accountability system is the principal in each school," Jeri Lynn suggested. "With several of the schools in Metro teetering on the edge of state takeover by the end of the year, we had lots of strict principals who wanted to hold our feet to the fire with lower scores." "I thought the whole idea was to provide the teachers With feedback so that we would know the areas where we need improvement," Tish said. "The principals were supposed to conduct two observations in the fall and two more in the spring," Jeri Lynn said. think that's asking too much of them when they already have so much on their plates. I think a lot of them are skimping on their visits. know I only had one observation last semester, and I'm sure Mr. Talley just faked the second set of numbers. The master teachers make only two observations a year, which may be more objective but counts for less." "I'm wondering, too, how a principal measure performance in a course area outside his area of expertise, such as math," Joey said. "If the guy has a phobia about math, anything the teacher says or does is going to 100k brilliant-thus a 5." Tish and Jeri Lynn looked at each other and laughed. "Maybe we picked the wrong subjects," Tish said. "My question is one of perception," Jeri Lynn said. "A large percentage of my students are ELL. That affects their scores. How do you measure a 3 in my situation against a 5 for Tish? At the end of the school year, little Carlos is thrilled that his reading in English has improved, but there`s no Big Bang here. a slow steady improvement that may not actually show up in big strides for a couple of years: "So, the question is how do they create a system that is fair?" Tish asked. "And accurate," added Jeri Lynn. How might the state control the accuracy of principals who are conducting teacher evaluations?

- Case Part A Tesla Quality Challenge Consumer Reports, the service that reports unbiased testing and ratings on cars, recommends avoiding new cars in their first year of production, especially those loaded with new technology. What can Tesla do to refute this recommendation?Q.1: Below given is a case study. Read it with full understanding and answer the questions given at the end. CASE STUDY In December 1986, Mr. Bhatti, Manager of NCR Corporation, Karachi was facing the following decisions. In order to gain a greater share of the personal computer market, Mr. Bhatti wondered whether he should use TV advertising, which was highly expensive, but totally ignored by his competitors in Pakistan. Company Background NCR Corporation, head office, Dayton Ohio, USA, was a multinational computer manufacturing company. Products include mainframe, mini computers, ATM and Personal Computers. The company had more than 1,200 branches in 120 countries of the world. Three branches were in Pakistan: Islamabad, Lahore, and Karachi. Personal Computers (PCs) were introduced by the company in 1985. The market for PCs was much wider than that for Mainframe and Mini computers. NCR was the second largest computer selling company in Pakistan. Mr. Bhatti was looking forward to…Case Study 1: Julian Graves Marketing The first Julian Graves store opened in 1993. The product range comprises over 600 lines of dried fruit, nuts, herbs, spices, and sweets. The shop targets middle-aged and elderly people, predominantly female customers, who gain a sense of nostalgia when browsing through the product range. This includes basic cooking ingredients, a product category that has been 'squeezed' by supermarket retailers in recent years, as well as gourmet items, such as porcini mushrooms, that might be considered a marginal item by most supermarket operators. The store environment is clearly laid out with pine-wood fixtures that complements the 'natural' feel of the products. The goods are displayed in transparent packaging so that the colours and textures of the products themselves contribute to theaesthetics of the store. To reinforce the browsing and leisure shopping appeal of the store, the company prefers to operate in seaside and tourist towns, as well as prosperous…
- Case Study: 2 Satyam Computers’ Corporate Governance Fiasco case study This case study captures the events that occurred between January 7th,2009, and January 10th 2009. On January 7th, 2009, very surprisingly the CEO, B. Ramalinga Raju released a press statement confessing that the books of accounts were tampered with and the income figures in the last few years were inflated. More interesting, rather amusing, was his admission that no one else was involved in this entire episode and taking the onerous responsibility on himself. And this confession triggered off a series of events resulting in the arrest of B. Ramalinga Raju on January 10th, 2009. This debacle at Satyam Computers proved that the rewards, recognition, and accolades for following the best practices in corporate governance by themselves are not ultimate proof of corporate governance principles being practiced in letter and spirit. However, one question remains unanswerable. When the CEO assumes the entire responsibility…Case study: GoodBite is interested in selling a new form of teeth whitening strips. They dissolve in your mouth and leave less of a gunky residue feeling than current competitors' products do. Whitestrips seem to appeal to people 20-29 years old. Competitors' data on existing strips suggest they appeal to women slightly more than men, but, for the moment, GoodBite is not planning on differentiating on gender in the advertising. So let's ignore gender and just consider that 20-29 year old age category. Say the U.S. population is 301 mm, with 41.1 mm in the target age bracket. About 7.5 mm people have tried competitors' whitestrips (GoodBite isn't on the market yet), and roughly 3 mm of them are semiserious, frequent users. GoodBite is trying to guesstimate the size of its target market and its likely profitability. The GoodBite product is sold in packages of 14 sets of strips (each set is an upper and lower pair) in each box. GoodBite isn't sure of the frequency with which a typical…Wirte an abstract about the case study below: Research Case Scenario 28 year old, Friendly Frank, found himself unemployed and looking for work after he was fired from First National Bank. Frank was well liked and always had received positive reviews during his five year career at the bank. He had joined the organization right after graduating college and had been promoted and done well during his time there. Frank was fired for breaking a company rule regarding using social media accounts while at work. Frank would occasionally log into his Facebook social media account during work hours on his work computer which violated company rules. This ultimately led to his losing his job as it was against First National Bank policies for employees to engage in personal activities online for non-work related activities during the workday. Frank lamented his firing stating that it was a complete overreaction, his activities were innocent, occasional, and brief. Not any different than anyone…
