From COVID to AI: What’s Next for Teachers’ Unions?
In the wake of COVID, the rise of AI, and sweeping political change, education is being transformed— raising new questions about the future role of teachers’ unions.In a new episode of Factual Foundations of Policy, Michael Hartney and Melissa Lyon join host Tom Church to examine the role of teachers’ unions in American education at a time of declining student achievement, post-COVID learning loss, and rapid technological change. Drawing on research about union membership, collective bargaining, and teacher strikes, the discussion explores how unions shape both education policy and working conditions. It also reviews evidence on their effects on education spending, teacher compensation, and student outcomes.
