Graduate Research Papers

A high labor turnover rate is the natural consequence of these conditions. Compounding this problem is the building industry's highly labor intensive nature.

Proficiency Appraisal: A Viable Alternative To Merit Pay, Kenneth T. Pietraniec

All Graduate Projects

An original design of an incentive plan to reward and encourage instructional proficiency was developed. The evaluative criteria is based on findings of current research in effective instruction. Students, colleagues, administrators, and a trained outside observer appraise behaviors in the domains of classroom climate, time on task, management of student conduct, and teacher expectations. A proficiency grid rates and maps the collected data. Proficiency point totals determine monetary reward and identify professional development needs.
