The Resouce Cost Model in Illinois: Utilization for Planning and Funding.
Nelson, F. Howard
Educational Planning, v6 n3 p3-15 Win 1987
The Resources Cost Model (RCM) determines an appropriate cost of education for each Illinois school district. Appropriate cost is a function of the quantity of resources (teachers, supplies, and buildings) needed and the price of resources faced by each district. A modified RCM framework could remove the model's surburban bias and improve judgment of poverty areas. Includes 16 references. (MLH)
