On any given school day, approximately one out of six citizens is engaged in American public education as students, educators or support staff members. Universal public education is a uniquely American enterprise with a rich history and, given its status as a perennial lightning rod, a very uncertain future. Questions such as 1) What should the schooling process include or not include? 2) How can the schooling process be improved? 3)教育过程对社会的成本效益是什么？ - are questions that will be the focus of readings, discussion and debate in this course. This course will challenge students to think critically and broadly about the process of public education in the United States from past, present and future perspectives. In addition, students will learn about sixteen future trends and the five levers of the schooling process - structure, sample, standards, strategy and self - so as to form and articulate a framework of perception and facts that will enable students to be active participants in public education in the future as educators, parents and/or community members.
