This book provides first-person accounts from parents and educators
in the United States who have negotiated for a prominent role in
current conversations about school reform. Heron Hruby and
Landon-Hays argue that it is important to both theorize and
document grassroots efforts at a time when digital networking in
the Untied States allows a range of people - not just those in
conventional positions of corporate or political power - to garner
widespread support for education policy. In particular, the book
focuses on the shifts in power that take place when teachers and
parents are able to carve out successful wide-spread campaigns
against high-profile policy movements, specifically the present
movement towards charter school proliferation and value-added
measures of teacher quality advocated by a growing number of
political leaders, political action committees, and privately
funded ad hoc advocacy groups.
