Performance-Based Pay for Teachers in Oklahoma

How do you feel about teacher pay incentives for student performance?

Oklahoma is looking to be more competitive in the Race to the Top federal funds competition. This legislation is one step toward that goal according to the article, "Performance-Based Pay Bill Passes House."

"The legislation states that the incentives should be based upon student and school performance growth and aspects such as leadership skills, organizational and classroom management skills and instructional leadership."

What do you think?   Can money motivate teachers to be better in the classroom?
