Beschreibung
After first appearing in 1979 in Tennessee, performance fundingfor higher education went on to be adopted by another 26 states.This monograph reviews research on a multitude of states to addressthese questions: * What impacts does performance funding have oninstitutional practices and, ultimately, student outcomes? * What obstacles and unintended effects do performancefunding encounter? This monograph finds considerable impacts on institutionalpractices, weak impacts on student outcomes, substantial obstacles,and sizable unintended impacts. Given this, the monograph closeswith a discussion of the implications for future research and forpublic policymaking on performance funding. This is the 2nd issue of the 39th volume of the Jossey-Bassseries ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is thedefinitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based onthorough research of pertinent literature and institutionalexperiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Notedpractitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write thereports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscriptbefore publication.
