Abstract | This article draws on research from outside of education to evaluate some common myths about performance pay and to consider future directions for designing and evaluating performance pay systems in K-12 education. The five common myths surrounding performance pay include: (1) Performance pay systems improve performance; (2) Performance pay systems enhance teacher motivation; (3) Effective performance pay systems are relatively free from adverse side effects; (4) Performance pay won't work because teachers are already motivated and working as hard as they can; and (5) Performance pay, like other effective business strategies, should be applied to K-12 education. The authors conclude by encouraging educators, researchers, and policy makers to include measures of well-being when considering performance pay programs. (Contains 1 table.) (ERIC). |
