It certainly seems useless...but perhaps that's just because it's in the New York Times.
Nevertheless, I'm sure with current cutbacks in the US there will be a whole slew of "research" which will show how wonderfully valuable all grade school and high school teachers are, and how they are overworked, underpayed, under-appreciated, as well as their benefit and retirement packages just aren't good enough. It's just awful. Of course all grade and high school teachers should be making around 300K a year. They are such wonderful human beings who do so much for us all. --Mike On Wed, Jul 28, 2010 at 3:50 PM, Mike Palij <[email protected]> wrote: > WARNING: This post referes to economic analysis of educational > programs and outcomes.
