| description |
This paper uses the OECD's Program
for International Student Assessment student-level
achievement database for Mexico to estimate state education
production functions, controlling for student
characteristics, family background, home inputs, resources,
and institutions. The authors take advantage of the
state-level variation and representative sample to analyze
the impact of institutional factors such as state
accountability systems and the role of teachers' unions
in student achievement. They argue that accountability,
through increased use of state assessments, will improve
learning outcomes. The authors also cast light on the role
of teachers' unions, namely their strength through
appointments to the school and relations with state
governments. The analysis shows the importance of good
relations between states and unions. Furthermore, it
demonstrates that accountability systems are cost-effective
measures for improving outcomes. |
