MET Project (Measures of Effective Teaching)

The Measures of Effective Teaching (MET) Project is an initiative aimed at improving education by studying what makes a good teacher. Funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, it collected data from various schools to identify effective teaching practices. The project analyzed classroom observations, student feedback, and test scores to develop better methods for evaluating teachers. Its goal is to enhance teaching quality, which can lead to better student outcomes, and to provide useful feedback for teachers’ professional development, ultimately fostering a more effective learning environment in schools.
