Educational Change and the Political Process brings together key ideas on both the system of educational policy and the policy process in the United States. No other textbook offers as comprehensive a view of the US educational policy procedure and political systems. It provides students with a broad, methodical understanding of educational policy.
Each chapter provides case studies, discussion questions, and classroom activities to scaffold learning, as well as a bibliography for further reading to deepen Section I discusses the actors and systems that create and implement policy on both the federal and the local level; Section II walks students through the policy process from idea to implementation to evaluation; and Section III delves into three major forces driving the creation of educational policies in the current era-accountability, equity, and market-driven reforms.
