The Politics of Teacher Education Reform: Strategic Philanthropy and Public Policy Making

Karen Symms Gallagher

Jerry D. Bailey

The issue of what appropriate role philanthropic foundations should play in the formation of policies related to the education of professionals is explored. Specifically, the 1910 Flexner report on medical education and the 1996 National Commission on Teaching & America's Future report on teacher education, both financed by Carnegie foundations, are compared and contrasted. The influence of strategic philanthropy in the democratic process has decreased over 90 years, so more public engagement is needed if meaningful changes in practice are to occur.
