To continue to grow, teachers need a supportive environment that allows them to develop their instructional skills through specific, actionable feedback (e.g., Arneson, 2015; Haep et al., 2016; Tuytens & Devos, 2017) . School and district leaders can build a supportive environment through enhancing their human capital management system (HCMS) to include professional learning that incorporates research-based strategies (DeMonte, 2013), a collaborative learning environment (Lipscombe et al., 2020; Voogt et al., 2016), and coaching and mentoring of teachers on effective instructional practices and strategies (Damore & Rieckhoff, 2019; Kraft et al., 2018) . Implementing an HCMS that includes these supportive elements leads to continuous improvement in teachers’ instructional skills, which in turn leads to improved student performance.  \nIn fall 2019, the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching (NIET) and Indiana district partners were awarded a U.S. Department of Education Teacher and School Leader (TSL) Incentive Program grant to expand and sustain HCMS to support teachers and improve students' academic success. The TSL program provided funding to implement sustainable HCMSs that include performance-based compensation and professional learning and growth opportunities to help recognize, develop, and retain effective educators in high-need schools (defined as at least 50% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch subsidies) and, thereby, improve students’academic success.  \nThe Indiana TSL district partners served urban, rural, and small city communities. The Indiana TSL partnership impacted more than 120 administrators, 1,800 teachers, and 26,000 students in grades PK – 12. On average, these high-need schools had over 60% of students qualify for free and reduced-price lunch and over 50% of students were students of color. This research brief examines the evidence of successful accomplishment of the Indiana TSL partnership goals related to enhancing teachers’ instructional skills and improving student achievement.  \nIndiana TSL Partnership  \nBuilding an effective teacher workforce in schools requires school districts to improve their HCMS. Enhancing the HCMS contributes to better working relationships, advancing organizational knowledge, and improving student outcomes (Audisio et al., 2023; Backes et al., 2022; Ford & Forsyth, 2021; Taylor, 2022) . Inversely, lowquality HCMS can lead to teacher turnover with detrimental effects on teacher quality and student achievement (Sorensen & Ladd, 2020) . In 2016, the Center for American Progress released recommendations for school districts to improve their HCMS, which included mentorship for new teachers, high-quality professional development with frequent opportunities for feedback, opportunities for career advancement and leadership roles, and competitive compensation (Konoske-Graf et al., 2016) . The HCMS improvements that Indiana TSL district partners implemented during the grant address all of these recommendations.  \nAs part of the TSL grant, districts establish or enhance their HCMS through the implementation of the TAP System for Teacher and Student Advancement (TAP System) . The TAP System is a comprehensive educator effectiveness model that hundreds of schools have implemented since 1999 through federal, state, and local funding initiatives. The TAP System’s theoretical framework consists of four aligned core elements designed to improve educator effectiveness, ","cbCaigmr8WCQZe0W","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigmr8WCQZe0W","pdf",702335,"English","# Introduction\n# Indiana TSL Partnership\n## Multiple career paths\n## Ongoing applied professional growth\n## Instructionally focused accountability","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Indiana TSL Incentive Program grant described in the brief?\",\"answer\":\"The grant expands and sustains human capital management systems to support teachers and improve students’ academic success through performance-based compensation and professional learning opportunities.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the brief describe the impact of the Indiana TSL district partnership?\",\"answer\":\"It reports impact across urban, rural, and small city communities, reaching more than 120 administrators, 1,800 teachers, and 26,000 students in grades PK–12.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the four core elements of the TAP System mentioned in the brief?\",\"answer\":\"The brief lists multiple career paths, ongoing applied professional growth, and instructionally focused accountability, presented as aligned elements intended to improve educator effectiveness and student outcomes.\"}]","Building Instructional Excellence and Advancing Student Achievement in Indiana - Research Brief - Summer 2023 | PDF",1792056180,23]
