标题：Educational Effectiveness Function: An Algorithmic Methodology Uniting Instruments, Stakeholders, and Weighings into Numerical Effectiveness Indices
摘要：This study is based on effectiveness data collected from beginning or new vocational education teachers. The report illustrates multiattribute utility technology applied to 31 indicator items first reported in a publication of the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development. Nineteen of the 31 items were aggregated into a teaching effectiveness component and 12 into a component for school effectiveness. The teaching and school effectiveness components then were aggregated into 5 educational effectiveness functions based on as many different weighings (0, 10. 0.25, 0.50, 0.75. and 0.90) of the teaching effectiveness component. Properties of the resulting distributions were presented. Finally, a more general model of educational effectiveness based on multiattribute utility technology was explored.
