Business as Stakeholder in Public Education: A History of Business Efforts to Improve Public Schools in the United States
Abstract
Explores seven roles businesses and business leaders have played with respect to U.S. public education reform historically and today: "owners" helping set the agenda; "investors" donating funds; "customers" hiring graduates; "experts" contributing management know-how; "suppliers" selling goods and services; "competitors" running private schools; and "partners" in joint ventures for education improvement.
