  • "Find the most effective programs out there and then provide the capital needed to replicate their successes in communities around the country. By focusing on high-impact, results-oriented nonprofits, we will ensure that government dollars are spent in a way that is effective, accountable, and worthy of the public trust."
  • Through the Department of Education's innovation funds, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan is promoting a very specific image of school reform, one that borrows liberally from the venture philanthropists' goal of bringing free-market values to the public sector. The federal guidelines encourage states and schools to embrace specific "innovations," such as enacting merit pay for teachers and lifting laws that cap the number of charter schools. Though such policies may have tertiary benefits, there is no research consensus on whether either one contributes to the "bottom line" of education reform -- increased academic achievement for high-poverty kids.

    By Dana Goldstein, published in The American Prospect, November 19, 2009. The article is critical of the idea of "innovation" in public policy, and cites specific criticisms of recent Obama initiatives in innovation, including in education. See highlights.

    Excellent video on how businesses need to redesign their systems to support listening, learning, sharing--more people you know, the more things you can do--"next practices" drawn from Jarche's blog

    Very interesting yet short video on social learning as it relates to business but at first glance, they seem to apply to nonprofits/educational groups, too.

    Beth's impressions of the 2012 Philanthropy and Social Investment Industry Report and the conference she attended, December 2011. Love the example of the awesomely bad infographics--chuckle out loud funny.
