Abstract
This study explored the impact of Value-Added reports on teachers' perceptions of their efficacy. This research study was completed in a middle school in Ohio and the data were analyzed through the grounded theory methodological approach. A pilot tested interview protocol was used to collect data from six study participants. Participants' interview responses were transcribed and were triangulated with their reports. The data analysis process led to the emergence of a theory regarding the impact of Value-Added on teachers. Participants reported an impact with four themes: impact of Value-Added on self, perceived inaccuracy of Value-Added, practices that led to Value-Added, and privacy with the reports. In sum, the participants reported that their self-efficacy is not impacted by their Value-Added ratings.
