View source for Talk:Spring 2010 101 Research: Education Policy

===First Wave===

One danger with this topic is that there are so many ways of talking about it and levels of discussion on education reform that it's hard to get focus.  I'm a little worried about that with this batch of research.  

But get this material organized better on the wiki page, and let me know where you've been looking and what you think it's adding up to.

I still think focus and narrowing of the topic is going to be crucial here.

Ok, gang (Samantha, Jenna, Anastasia), thanks for a good meeting today.  I gathered that the research had hit a couple of snags.  For most of you, doing a postmortem on the No Child Left Behind Act wasn't an appealing focus, yet the new plan, Obama's hadn't received much scholarly discussion yet (though we want to check that claim with a librarian).  The NEA article at the bottom of the research page was one we were hoping to clone.  The other snag was that the world of "k-12 education reform" seems like a vast ocean.  How do we find a few of the "best and brightest" reformers to compare with our own thinking about education reform?  How are the most authoritative voice in education reform right now?  Who's behind the Obama plan?  So this became our second research goal for Sunday.
