A.) There's usually a generous bump in salary if you get a master's degree
B.) Many school districts have reimbursement programs that heavily subsidize getting master's degrees.
C.) Far too many Education master's degree programs are baby-town frolics level of difficulty, when they aren't straight degree mills.
- pc86 11y agoA.) This sort of goes hand-in-hand with the Intelligence Community PhD article that was also on the front page today. "Oh you have a Master's so clearly your time is worth another $2-10k (the MS supplement range for 2007-08)" It's just another box to check and as long as getting one earns you $x a year more there's little to no reason not to spend 2-3x once even if it does nothing to help your students. C.) I'm sure it varies by institution and geographic area, but at my High School about half the teachers with a Master's had one in "Instructional Technology." They still struggled with basic computer and projector operation, so I'm not quite sure what that degree got them in the end.
