• W331353281 abstract "WHO SETS the agenda for education? Who decides which ideas need to be drafted into legislation? Where does a state governor get information for a new statewide initiative? Setting the agenda is not a precise process in any state. Some legislators take their cues from constituents' problems, while others seem to respond to interest groups and lobbyists. A few even try to cover both bases by filing a general bill title on an unspecific set of contents something that can be amended later in response to political winds blowing from an unexpected direction. Governors use the same system of listening to constituents and pressure groups because many were also legislators once. But they also take their ideas from other governors. When governors meet alone at one of their meetings, the conversation is especially spirited. Ideas can cross party lines with ease. Understanding the process, however, still doesn't tell us where ideas originate or how educators can get a head start on the same issues. There a few likely and unlikely places to look for possible trends. The problem is that the likely and unlikely places move around from year to year, and those in the know often want to keep their sources hidden. Read Widely There people who specialize in identifying issues in education. Some write for national publications; others keep a low profile and occasionally make an appearance on the op-ed pages of leading newspapers. In the old days Ben Brodinsky could always be counted on to make year-end summaries and coming-year projections for Croft Publications. In the Midwest a business leader, William Banach, CEO of Banach, Banach & Cassidy, Inc., has been doing this type of predicting for the past 19 years. Last December he gave a summary of his 1999 prognosis in a speech to the Kansas School Boards Association, titled Top Ten Hots and Nots for 1999. Banach's was an interesting list and one that could easily be misread. On the hot side he listed choice not the usual charters and open enrollment, but the choices families and students will have when learning can come through the air. He said that when students can take courses over the Internet or through a virtual university or a corporate college or can even study at home on their own, then educators will have to make some choices. They'll have to decide whether they want to be one item on the smorgasbord or broaden their base and broker a variety of learning options, Banach wrote. He even suggested that educators might have to form alliances with former enemies, such as the home-schoolers. Also on his hot list were governors. He advised, If you want to get a jump on the next educational initiative, look over the agenda for the next meeting of the National Governors' Association (NGA). The reason, according to Banach, is that governors not cabinet officers or professional education associations are driving the national education agenda. The Governors' Agenda Taking Banach's advice, we find that the NGA report of the 1999 winter meeting had education listed as one of the top priorities. Gov. Thomas Carper of Delaware, who is chair of the NGA, said he would ask the governors to focus on raising the level of student achievement. His initiative, titled smartkids4ourfuture has three task forces dealing with accountability, technology, and learning opportunities. The accountability group will convene two regional forums this spring to provide governors and policy makers with an opportunity to hear about solutions and practices in other states and to learn from experts in the field. This task force is co-chaired by Gov. Tony Knowles of Alaska and Gov. John Roland of Connecticut. The extra learning group is co-chaired by Gov. Frank O'Bannon of Indiana and Gov. William Janklow of South Dakota. The goal of this task force is to help governors put together a seamless web of learning opportunities for all children. …" @default.
