EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The executive summary is a brief summary of the contents. It’s a good idea to write this last, when you know the key points in your report. It should be no more than half a page to a page in length.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Reports have numbered sections and subsections, and a clear and full contents page listing each heading. It follows that page numbering is important. Modern word processors have features to add tables of contents (ToC) and page numbers as well as styled headings; you should take advantage of these as they update automatically as you edit your report, moving, adding or deleting sections

SECTION ONE : MERIT PAY IN GENERAL 1000 words

1. Define “merit pay”
2. Summarize the theoretical thinking behind the idea of merit pay
3. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of merit pay

SECTION TWO : MERIT PAY FOR TEACHERS 1500 words

1. Summarize the views of US teachers’ unions toward merit pay for teachers
2. Research the views of teachers’ unions toward merit pay in two other countries (not the USA). Summarize these and compare and contrast the teachers’ unions views in the three countries. Include a table.

SECTION THREE: ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

1. List all the sources you have cited. Use the Harvard referencing system.
2. For SIX of the sources cited above, provide a brief summary (c. 100 – 150 words each) explaining what you learned from the source and how this informed your report.

Guidelines

1. Each group is to submit both a written report and a soft copy.
2. Use size 12, Times New Roman font, double spaced.
3. Tables, diagrams and figures should be sourced and include proper referencing
4. Plagiarism is not allowed. If your report shows more than 20 %, marks will be deducted.
