They examine the preferences and effects of design features not only from the perspective of the employer\u2014by looking at changes in teacher productivity and retention\u2014but also from the perspective of the employee\u2014by investigating the nature of incentives teachers design for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Springer and Taylor find that, when given the opportunity, teachers tend to design group-oriented incentive pay plans that use egalitarian award distribution. The plans offer weak incentives that do not appear to have induced any significant increases in student test scores, though the award amount of performance bonuses was correlated with teacher turnover. Both the receipt and size of a bonus award had a moderate impact, with the probability of turnover falling as the size of the award grew.<\/p>\n<p>Please visit\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/\/Volumes\/KINGSTON\/Performance%20Incentives%20Website\/index.html\">www.performanceincentives.org<\/a> in the near future to view the final paper.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div><span style=\"color: #6d6464;font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;font-size: 12px;line-height: 18px\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NCPI director Matthew G.
