q3 · i? · associational · r1
Statewide survey capacity-building items comparing 2014 and 2015 teacher responses (teacher N 2014=14,905; 2015=17,344). Need decreased year by year on items such as receiving SLO feedback (down 7 percentage points for teachers).
"More teachers in 2015 compared to 2014 say they are receiving the support they need to implement TPE. Despite these improvements, approximately 45% of teachers indicate that they need further training."
