Title: Special Topics in Public Education Reform
Description: Examines historical and contemporary approaches to education reform in America's cities, with a particular focus on how reform efforts have affected students. We will explore the following questions: What are the historical challenges of urban education reform and how have policymakers attempted to address them? What can we learn from urban districts that are attempting to combat these problems today, and what are the "best practices" in urban education reform? This course will investigate both the administrative and scholastic levels of reform, as well as the environmental factors that affect the lives of urban students.
