Teacher Compensation Outreach and Analysis

This project aims to identify alternative salary approaches that provide strong incentives for enhancing the individual teaching capacity to teach students to high academic standards, and that reward groups of teachers for success. Specifically, the project is looking at how alternative pay systems might be used to better focus teacher development and classroom practice, as well as the role of compensation in organizational development. Ultimately, the project hopes to build on the strengths of existing compensation systems in education and other sectors to make compensation an important element in support of educational reform and teaching excellence.
