Defining Merit.
Odden, Allan; Ballou, Dale; Podgursky, Michael
Education Matters, v1 n1 p16-25 Spr 2001
Presents two views on merit pay. One suggests that the single salary schedule does not suit today's reform environment, explaining how to align teacher compensation with current educational policy. The other notes that the single salary schedule does not let public school managers adjust teachers' pay to reflect performance and market realities, recommending knowledge- and skills-based pay.
