With two weeks left before the presidential election, we now have a chance to hear what the Republican and Democratic candidates have to say about education issues and strategy.
Education Week is hosting along with the Teacher’s College at Columbia and the National Association of Secondary Schools, a live debate on the education plans of the Republican and Democratic candidates. Their education advisors will be representing the campaigns for this debate – Linda Darling-Hammond for Barack Obama’s campaign, and Lisa Graham Keegan for John McCain’s campaign. It is an in-depth debate that we haven’t had the opportunity to hear straight from the candidates, so here are the plans from their advisors.
To register for this FREE webcast tomorrow night go to Education Week and click the box on the right hand side of the screen describing the debate.
This debate will be available as a video archive the next day by Noon if you can’t attend the webcast live.
You can follow Education Week’s online coverage of the 2008 presidential campaign to learn more about where the major candidates stand on education - check Education Week’s blog Campaign K-12, for more analysis of the candidates’ views.
