First we would have to define what a “bad” teacher is and how to measure it.

All any of us have here is anecdotal. Like Potter Stewart and pornography, I may not be able to define a “bad” teacher but I know one when I see it.

basically, you have nothing but generalized talking points from the GOP boilerplate, got it

All anecodtes are not created equal. Ludwig’s anecodtes and SFZs anecdotes carry more weight because

THEY ARE EDUCATORS.

And they’re of course getting pushback from conservative ideologues who don’t seem to have any experience in the matter of education infrastructure except they raised kids, and they hate unions.
