Achieving Program Equity: Are Markets the Answer?
Picus, Lawrence O.
Educational Policy, v8 n4 p568-81 Dec 1994
Reliance on market structures can help educators meet Clune's program adequacy goals. Transfer barriers should be eliminated so that teachers can freely choose schools with institutional missions approximating their own visions. Compensation should be based more on teacher knowledge and performance than on experience and training. A market-based approach to technical assistance and professional development is proposed.
