A new Web site guides activists and educators to information on the Internet about public-school reform.
The Public Education Network’s site discusses hot topics in public education — such as equity in school financing, parent involvement, school governance, and student testing — and provides annotated links to other Web sites that offer additional information.
The site also includes reports that can be downloaded and instructions on how to subscribe to the network’s e-mail discussion lists on school improvement and the role of technology in the classroom.
The network, located in Washington, is a coalition of community groups that lobby to improve schools and raise money for special projects. Contact information and descriptions of more than 40 local education funds are available on the site.
