GED 8506 - Advanced Policy and Education

In addition to an overview of policy formulation in public arenas, particular emphasis is placed on policy development and the implications for all levels and types of formal education in the United States; on local, state, national, and transnational perspectives on educational policy; and on public scholarship related to policy. Participants engage in the design, development, and evaluation of policy related to education policy issues. An underlying principle of the course is policy activism.
