Conference Paper
Improving education outcomes: in colleges, universities, and beyond: panel discussion
Merten, Alan G. (2002)
While most of the attention of the public, the policymakers, and this conference is on improving our K -12 education system, our higher education also needs attention. Higher education is undergoing dramatic changes that have to be considered in conjunction with the demands on and the changes in the K -12 system. Similarly, there are common needs of the two systems, and lessons from higher education should be considered in any K -12 reform proposal.

COVID-19 and Education: An Updated Survey of the Research
Hinrichs, Peter (2023-08-22)
This Economic Commentary surveys research on COVID-19 in relation to education in the United States. It is a companion to an earlier survey (Hinrichs, 2021) and focuses on the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic that might persist even after life has returned to a relative normal. The evidence suggests that the pandemic led to lower enrollment at public schools and negatively impacted student learning. In addition, teacher turnover did not rise at the beginning of the pandemic, but it has risen in the years since.

House prices and the quality of public schools: what are we buying?
Crone, Theodore M. (1998-09)
Do house prices reflect the quality of the local public schools? To what extent do school district policies determine how well students perform? How do such factors as neighborhood, family, and peers affect school quality and house prices? Ted Crone examines these questions, and others, to determine whether house prices do, indeed, include a school premium.

Conference Paper
An education support system
Simmons, Warren (2002-06)
I think the conversation about system change rather than simply school change is beginning to increase in volume despite our culture's resistance to thinking about education in this way. I urge each of you to join this conversation about how we build a local infrastructure, not a school district necessarily, but a local infrastructure with the capacity to make our national education goals a reality rather than a hollow promise.

Report
U.S. wages in general equilibrium: the effects of prices, technology and factor supplies, 1963-1991
Balaban, Rita A.; Harrigan, James (1999)
Wage inequality in the United States has increased in the past two decades, and most researchers suspect that the main causes are changes in technology, international competition, and factor supplies. The relative importance of these causes in explaining wage inequality is important for policy making and is controversial, partly because there has been no research which has directly estimated the joint impact of these different causes. In this paper, we view wages as arising out of a competitive general equilibrium where goods prices, technology and factor supplies jointly determine outputs ...
