Goals
At the 2011 SMTE Symposium, The Policy ASPA identified three action items that define our agenda for the next two years:
- Action Item #1. Identify specific intersections between policy and other ASPAs’ action items. Generate policy talking points as part of a larger strategy for accomplishing those goals.
- Action Item #2. Develop strategies for developing state-level policy awareness among teachers and administrators. Projects may include articles, conference presentations, and online resources.
- Action Item #3. Create “Policy Bites,” a series of podcasts presenting views, definitions, or insight from practical and conceptual experience.
