• The Misallocation of Pay and Productivity in the Public Sector: Evidence from the Labor Market for Teachers (2017, unknown): “Following Araujo et al. (2016), Hanushek and Rivkin (2012), and McCaffrey et al. (2009), we take advantage of the fact that the variance of the teacher effects is Cov(λ jt ,λ j,t+1), where λ jt is the true de-meaned classroom effect for teacher j in year t.”
• Teacher Quality and Learning Outcomes in Kindergarten (2016, background): “A substantial amount of research has shown that readily observable teacher characteristics— experience, education, and contractual status, among others—explain very little of the differences in teacher quality (Hanushek and Rivkin 2012; Rivkin et al. 2005).”
