Download or read book 1999 National Education Goals Report written by National Education Goals Panel (Ed), Washington, Dc and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report, ninth in a series, is designed to indicate progress made by the United States toward the eight National Education Goals. Following a statement of the eight Goals, part 1 explains the nature and purposes of the Goals. Part 2, "Summary of Progress to Date," evaluates national and state progress made toward these goals since 1990, the year they were established, placing emphasis on state improvement over time. Part 3 summarizes national progress, and part 4 summarizes state progress for each goal for the 34 state indicators. Much has been accomplished, but progress toward the Goals has not been uniform across the Goals or across the states. Much more must be done, particularly with regard to teacher education and professional development, mathematics and science achievement, the reduction of drug and alcohol use, and the promotion of safe and orderly schools. Three appendixes contain technical notes and sources for national and state indicators and acknowledgments. (Sld).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The complexity of governments today makes the accountability desired by citizens difficult to achieve. Written to address performance policies within state and national governments, Government Performance and Results: An Evaluation of GPRA’s First Decade summarizes lessons learned from a 10-year research project that evaluated performance reports produced by federal agencies under the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). The results of this project can help answer a wide variety of questions in political economy and public administration, such as: What factors make performance reports relevant and informative? Has the quality of information disclosed to the public improved? Why do some agencies produce better reports than others? Has GPRA led to greater availability and use of performance information by federal managers? Has GPRA led to greater use of performance information in budget decisions? What steps would make federal management and budget decisions more performance oriented? The book documents the current state of the art in federal performance reporting, measures the extent of improvement, compares federal performance reports with those produced by state governments and other nations, and suggests how GPRA has affected management of federal agencies and resource allocation by policymakers. It also identifies obstacles that must be overcome if GPRA is to deliver on the promise of performance budgeting. The authors chronicle the improvements observed in federal performance reporting through the lens of the Mercatus Center’s annual Performance Report Scorecard. As budget shortfalls and new debt burdens increase interest in public management and budgeting techniques that allow governments to do more with less, this is an appropriate time to take stock of what GPRA has accomplished and what remains to be done. By comparing best performance reporting practices in the US federal government with those in states and other countries, this book speeds the diffusion of useful knowledge at a critical time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report on the well-being of America's children highlights the critical need for renewed commitment to children by all sectors of society.

The six chapters of the report focus on the following: (1) family income, including the pervasiveness of child poverty, the working poor, and legislative progress; (2) child health, including the problem of uninsured children and the Child Health Insurance Program; (3) child care, describing federal, state, and local initiatives, and presenting an action agenda; (4) education, including the Goals 2000 initiative, lagging international performance, reform efforts, and early and higher education; (5) children and families in crisis, including incidence estimates, the Adoption and Safe Families Act, attending to older teens in foster care, and increasing the emphasis on prevention; and (6) juvenile justice and youth development, including drops in violent crime rates, children and guns, nature of juvenile crime, school violence, juveniles in confinement, and successful community initiatives. Each chapter concludes with a proposed action agenda for 1999. The report's two appendices provide tabulated data on children nationwide and by state, covering areas such as poverty, maternal and infant health, adolescent childbearing, youth unemployment, government aid participation, child support, Head Start enrollment, child abuse and neglect, and firearm deaths. World Wide Web sites of interest to child advocates are also listed. (KB)
