This study examines organizational changes in state education
agencies (SEAs) in the context of standards-based accountability
policies in the United States. It identifies the changing
organizational characteristics of SEAs and depicts the
organizational motivations and strategies adopted to bring about
change. Based on institutional theories and empirical evidence from
state departments of education, the study proposes a theoretical
framework that explains the process of organizational change. The
organizational level analysis illustrates the impact of
standards-based accountability policy on the structure and networks
of SEAs and highlights the importance of organizational analysis in
policy design.
