Why is McIntyre pursuing reforms that do nothing for children and classrooms but will make private contractors rich on our tax dollars? Merit pay has NEVER worked. He is ignoring years of independent research. The National Center on Performance Incentives at Vanderbilt University published the findings of a rigorous study (2010) in which teachers were given a $15,000 bonus if test scores rose. Results? NO Effects. Teachers are working as hard as they can.
Further, Mcintyer seem wedded to promoting hack reforms. His devotion to TAP is as misguided as his religious zeal for merit pay. The TAP program has never been peer reviewed and all data concocted by the Miliken's TAP/TEAM is fraudulent. But what should we expect from a family of convicted Wall St felons?
