An overview is provided of the history and current status |
|
of merit pay from the perspectives of faculty unions, |
|
community and junior colleges, and elementary and |
|
secondary schools. Chapter 1 stresses the need to raise |
|
the salaries of master teachers, and chapter 2 discusses |
|
the responses of faculty unions, faculty members, and the |
|
public to the advent of merit pay. Chapter 3 suggests |
|
that a rationale and philosophical basis be developed by |
|
colleges before a merit plan is instituted, while chapter |
|
4 offers suggestions for the development of an |
|
administrative evaluation system to identify excellence |
|
in instructional performance. Types of merit pay or merit |
|
recognition plans in place or being proposed at |
|
elementary and secondary schools are reviewed in chapter |
|
5, while chapter 6 summarizes the findings of a national |
|
study of merit recognition in American community |
|
colleges. Chapter 7 outlines the provisions of specific |
|
merit pay and merit recognition plans in two-year |
|
institutions. Chapter 8, the final chapter, presents a |
|
summary of the issues related to merit pay, reviews |
|
emerging trends, and expresses hopes for the overall |
|
improvement of the quality of the American education |
|
system in the next decade. (ALB) |
