You’re hearing more advocacy of “pay
for performance” for teachers. Others advocate merit pay. The panel
will look at the nuances of the issue. Sabrina Laine, executive
director of the National Comprehensive Center on Teacher Quality at
Learning Point Associates, will offer an overview on the research
and policymaking. Arne Duncan will describe Chicago’s new efforts
on that front. Randi Weingarten will discuss New York City’s foray,
as well as the teacher union perspective. Margaret Bobb, a Denver
Public Schools teacher, will give the in-the-trenches perspective
about the Denver experience, both good and bad.
