The Annenberg Institute for School Reform

Mission

The Annenberg Institute for School Reform develops, shares and acts on knowledge that improves the conditions and outcomes of schooling in America, especially in urban communities and in schools serving disadvantaged children.

An independent center at Brown University, the Annenberg Institute is a standards-based and practice-centered policy-research and technical-assistance organization with an emphasis on promoting quality education for disadvantaged children and communities.

Publication: Voices in Urban Education (VUE)

This publication introduces a new "roundtable-in-print" format for convening – an important part of what the Annenberg Institute for School Reform does. They bring together educational stakeholders with a wide range of viewpoints to air differences and seek common ground.

In each issue of VUE, you'll find cutting-edge analysis of a vital issue in urban education; diverse voices, including leading education writers and thinkers as well as unconventional and seldom-heard voices; and provocative debate about improving urban education.
