“…Thus, although LANTITE has been cost-neutral for the government to implement, the initiative has the potential to generate up to 3.7 USD million in revenue annually, with around 20,000 teacher education graduates sitting the test each year (Knott, 2016). With Australian universities struggling in the face of decreased public sector funding (Klopper & Power, 2014;May et al, 2013)-and teacher education programmes scorned as 'cash cows' because they provide easy-to-fill student places (Zyngier, 2016, p. 32)-the financial incentives afforded by a test such as LANTITE has raised concerns (Barnes & Cross, 2018). In addition to generating revenue, without any clear sense of how profits are being reinvested to support other measures that might also help to improve teacher education, such as course innovation, and echoing similar concerns about the commodification of US teacher performance assessment data (e.g., Petchauer & Baker-Doyle, 2016;Reagan et al, 2016), LANTITE has also created private sector opportunities, such as tutoring companies and publishers, to flourish with LANTITE seminars and support materials now being widely promoted to the graduate student market.…”
