Minnesota K-12 Education: A Catalogue of Reform Proposals. A Summary Version. A Report of the CURA/College of Education Project on the Future of K-12 Education in Minnesota.
Wells, Lawrence C.
This document summarizes a catalogue report of major Minnesota proposals issued over the past two years (through the end of the 1985 legislative session) for improving the quality of K-12 public education in the State. The document provides an overview of the themes and highlights from the proposals, following the topical order used in the catalogue. Topic areas include: curriculum, pedagogy, student testing, reform of the teaching profession, and establishment of school-business partnerships. Three different types of reform measures are discussed in a section giving an account of legislation passed in the Education Finance Omnibus Bill during the June 1985 special session; these measures are: "access to excellence" legislation, student learning and testing legislation, and legislation relating to the teaching profession. Also included are a bibliography from the full report, presenting complete citations for all the reform proposals; and an appendix, providing information about the 18 different organizations and other sources of the reform proposals. These sources are categorized and briefly described; their addresses and phone numbers are supplied. (ETS)
