Educational Decision Making

Research indicates that youth, especially those facing injustice, such as youth of Color in urban settings, are essential participants in educational decision-making. However, due to adultism and intersecting forms of oppression, their inclusion is not the norm. Grounded in the concept of adultism and the tradition of storytelling, we address the following question: How can educational researchers and practitioners challenge the adultism that constrains youth’s participation in school- and district-level educational decision-making? We share stories about our experiences in urban schools, considering adultism at the interactional, institutional, and curricular levels. Our implications center on using critical reflexivity to challenge adultism.

Mathematics Curricula

We use data from one of the few states where information on curriculum adoptions is available—Indiana—to empirically evaluate differences in performance across three elementary-mathematics curricula. The three curricula that we evaluate were popular nationally during the time of our study, and two of the three remain popular today. We find large differences in effectiveness between the curricula, most notably between the two that held the largest market shares in Indiana. Both are best characterized as traditional in pedagogy. We also show that the publisher of the least-effective curriculum did not lose market share in Indiana in the following adoption cycle; one explanation is that educational decision makers lack information about differences in curricular effectiveness.

The Impact

This article describes the current public policy environment and the impact of that environment on efforts to refine the system for serving mildly handicapped students. The authors discuss the accelerated growth in the numbers of mildly handicapped children, which has prompted educational decision makers to seek more effective methods of assessment, identification, and instruction. Specific areas requiring attention and response are detailed, including revisions in the service delivery system, the preparation of personnel, the administration of program and funding structures, and the management and use of existing national and state data bases.
