Merit-based pay for teachers is a ridiculously absurd idea, and insulting to boot
70% Informative
Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy has been advocating for merit-based pay for teachers.
He says the idea that schools should be run like businesses fundamentally misses the goal of education.
Education is as much an art as a science, and measuring education is even more complex, he says.
Merit -based pay means well-off school districts with higher student scores will get more teacher applicants.
It incentivizes 'teaching to the test' and discourages other learning.
Teaching is an art and a science, and teachers know that learning growth is neither a linear process nor a purely numerical one.
It's insulting to the majority of teachers who are already doing their best.
