Book excerpt: "Politics hold significant roles in a great variety of entities and have lasting impacts throughout groups and communities. Education being no exception, it is worth examining the role politics play in student achievement within schools and society. Identifying possible sources of political power and exploring their correlation to student achievement could offer better understanding of the relationship between poltics and education. Acknowledging that the world of education is quite large, examining the local school districts of one state might provide key insights into possible large patterns or correlations between the political constructs found in education and its connection to student achievement within schools. This study examines an educational political source from the school districts in New Hampshire, teacher unions and collective bargaining, exploring their potential connection to the individual districts' students' SAT scores"--Abstract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely and comprehensive volume will spur and strengthen public debate over the role of teachers unions in education reform for years to come. Collective bargaining shapes the way public schools are organized, financed, staffed, and operated. Understanding collective bargaining in education and its impact on the day-to-day life of schools is critical to designing and implementing reforms that will successfully raise student achievement. But when it comes to public discussion of school reform, teachers unions are the proverbial elephant in the room. Despite the tremendous influence of teachers unions, there has not been a significant research-based book examining the role of collective bargaining in education in more than two decades. As a result, there is little basis for a constructive, empirically grounded dialogue about the role of teachers unions in education today.

Book excerpt: The role of collective bargaining in K-12 education invokes sharply different perspectives and debate. Teachers and administrators bring profoundly different points of view to the discussion, creating a division which significantly colors conversations on school reform. School administrators and many educational reformers have generally been critical of the role of teacher's unions in public education, contending that teacher collective bargaining agreements have blocked education reforms and increased the costs of running schools without resulting in greater educational performance. They argue that the mission of teacher's unions is not student achievement, but benefits for its membership. Other critics suggest that teacher's unions are wedded to an outdated model of education and that collective bargaining agreements must change to reflect new social and economic realities. Defenders of teacher's unions respond that the costs associated with collective bargaining agreements come with substantial benefits, that higher teacher salaries and benefits and smaller class sizes have led to improved teacher quality and student achievement, lower levels of attrition and turnover, and that it is unclear whether, controlling for other factors, non-unionized schools deliver greater educational performance. The authors of this report discuss both sides of the debate to critically examine the empirical evidence on the direct and indirect effects of collective bargaining on public education. Four Policy Perspectives are included: (1) Teacher Collective Bargaining and Positive Student Achievement (Sally Sloan); (2) Collective Bargaining (John Ellis); (3) Why Indiana Teachers Join ISTA (Nate Schnellenberger and Warren Williams); and (4) Teacher Collective Bargaining: Assessment and Expectation (Frank A. Bush). Six web resources are included. (Contains 8 endnotes, 3 figures and 2 tables.).

Book excerpt: The relationship between teacher unionization and student achievement is an important consideration in the overall debate about the nation & apos;s education system. Past studies have shown mixed results as to whether unionization has a positive or negative effect on student achievement. I examine this question using test scores from the National Assessment of Educational Progress and data from the Schools and Staffing Survey and find that unions seem to have a negative and statistically significant effect on student achievement. While this effect is small for slight changes in unionization, a large shift leads to visibly negative results.
