Abstract | Backed with political and financial capital, advocates of change push to improve America's education system. For most people, the purpose of education is self-improvement--becoming better informed, more knowledgeable, better equipped to solve problems, more able to earn a living and prosper. The more effectively an education system delivers on those promises, the greater likelihood a community will thrive. This article discusses controlling reform and putting children first through the Children First program. This article also discusses the efforts made by two reformers namely Bill Gates and Eli Broad to make changes occur. (ERIC). |
