Antebellum reformers believed that all children deserved a public education to realize their full potential. They saw education as important for individual opportunity and an informed citizenry. Reformers also thought public schools could help reduce crime and integrate immigrants. Early Americans valued education, and Puritans required public schools. Over time, reform efforts established tax-funded school systems, especially in northern states. Horace Mann's work as an educational reformer in Massachusetts doubled funding and established standards for curriculum, teaching, and attendance.

3.1 Education Under the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution
The first attempt at self-governance, the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, were adopted by the Continental Congress and went into effect after their ratification in 1781. With the Articles of Confederation, Congress attempted to organize the 13 separate colonies under a national government that was given little authority and included no executive or judicial branches. It was also unable to tax, regulate commerce, or enforce civil law. This weak government could not bring 13 disparate governments into a unified whole, and popular unrest, particularly over issues of money and debt, erupted with increasing frequency.
Fearing that the confederation would collapse and that anarchy would prevail, delegates from each state (except Rhode Island, which declined to send any representatives) met in the summer of 1787 and drafted the Constitution. After its ratification in 1789, it launched the new republic.
Neither the Articles of Confederation nor the Constitution mention education. It is thus one of the powers reserved to the states by the 10th Amendment, which states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." And, in fact, by 1800, 7 of the then 16 states had adopted constitutions that contained formal statements regarding their responsibility for education. Eventually, all the states adopted specific provisions for education. The language of these provisions range from a very general statement that the state provides a system of free public schools to very specific provisions specifying sch ...

National Debate Topic 2017–18: Education
Reform: Resolved: The United States federal
government should substantially increase its
funding and/or regulation of elementary
and/or secondary education in the United
States.
Introduction
SUPPORTERS ARGUE
Federal involvement in education is necessary to
ensure that all children receive the education they
deserve. The U.S. government should increase
education funding, shore up its support for public
schools, and impose regulations that protect the
right of all children to quality education.
OPPONENTS ARGUE
Federal involvement in education has stymied
innovation, burdened states with rules and
regulations, and deprived parents and local school
boards of authority over their children's schooling. It
is time to transfer power back to state and local
governments.
estimated 50 million students. The U.S. school system is, for the most part, decentralized, with local and state
governments responsible for funding schools and making educational decisions. Over the past half-century,
however, a series of laws and educational reforms have given the federal government a greater role in education.
The federal education budget constitutes only a small portion of education spending in the United States. In 2017,
the U.S. Department of Education had a budget of $69.4 billion, while the education budget for the New York City
public school system alone—the nation's largest—was $29.2 billion. The United States does, however, spend more
money overall per student than most other developed countries. In 2012, the United States spent 6.4 percent of
its Gross Domestic Product (GDP)—the total output of goods and services a nation produces during a given period
of time—on education, ranking it among the world’s highest spenders by GDP percentage. Yet students in the
United States lag behind many of their global counterparts in educational achievement. On the 2015 Programme
for International Student Assessment, a test given every three years to 15-year-olds throughout the world to
measure reading, math, and science abilities, American students ranked below average in math and about
average in reading and science.
Education policy debates over the last several decades have focused largely on whether and how much the federal
government should be involved in making, enforcing, and funding education policy across the country. Some argue
that state and local governments are best equipped to identify and meet students' needs, and they insist that any
national one-size-fits-all approach to education policy is bound to fail. Others argue that all levels of government
should roll back involvement in education, and that genuine competition between private and public schools would
improve education in the United States.

Education for All: The Push for Universal Schooling in 19th Century Americafaizalkhan1393
The 19th century was a period of profound transformation for American education. Amid the sweeping changes of the Industrial Revolution, the United States saw a fundamental shift from a loosely connected system of local, often voluntary schooling to a more standardized, state-supported public education system.

Running Head: REFLECTIVE SUMMARY 1
Summary of Chapter 5 2
The European based colonies used to carry out transportations and also established various educational institutions on the basis of socioeconomic classes in Northern America. A few basic activities such as religious studies, reading, arithmetic and writing were provided by the primary schools that had a vernacular language system. Other institutions such as the colonial college and the grammar school, provided a classical type of education. This education was provided to men and boys of upper classes as these institutions were reserved for them. This classical education activities taught them to take up the roles of leaders at places such as churches, societies and states.
In the beginning of the period of nationalism, three revolutionaries namely Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and Benjamin Rush suggested schemes for establishing a contemporary system of schools. An American form of the English dialect was used by Noah Webster’s Scheme in order to create an identity of US on a national level.
In the 19th century, the common school, which was the example of elementary school of the common masses, helped in the development of the education of teachers. This had much effect for the teachers of the ordinary schools. In addition to this, much initiative was taken up in order to make more number of women enter the field of teaching. At this time, the concept of women working or gaining education was not popular like modern times and majority of the women had to fight in order to obtain proper rights which was entitled to men but not them on the grounds that they are women and hence inferior in everything as compared to men.
At the end of the 19th century, the high schools that were public in nature, established the education system of America that connected the colleges of the state and universities to the elementary schools that are public. The future of the United States was influenced by such vital historical influences and references.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Education Of all the ideas advanced by antebellum (pre-Civil War) reformers, none was more original than the principle that all American children should be educated to their full capacity at public expense. Reformers viewed education as the key to individual opportunity and the creation of enlightened and responsible citizenry. Reformers also believed that public schooling could be an effective weapon in the fight against juvenile crime and an essential ingredient in the education and integration of immigrants. From the early days of settlement, Americans attached special importance to education. During the seventeenth century, the New England Puritans required every town to establish a public school supported by fees from all but the poorest families (a requirement later repealed). In the late eighteenth century, Thomas Jefferson popularized the idea that a democratic republic required an enlightened and educated citizenry. Early nineteenth century educational reformers extended these ideas and struggled to make universal education a reality. As a result of their efforts, the northern states were among the first jurisdictions in the world to establish systems of tax-supported, tuition-free public schools. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the United States had the world's highest literacy rate--approximate1y 75 percent. The campaign for public schools began in earnest in the 1820s, when religiously motivated reformers supported public education as an answer to poverty, crime, and deepening social divisions. At first, many reformers championed Sunday schools as a way "to reclaim the vicious, to instruct the ignorant, to raise the standard of morals among the lower classes of society." But soon, reformers began to call for public schools. Horace Mann (1796-1859) of Massachusetts was the nation's leading educational reformer. As a state legislator, in 1837 Mann took the lead in establishing a state board of education. He then resigned his seat to become board secretary. His efforts resulted in a doubling of state expenditures on education. He also won state support for teacher training, an improved curriculum in schools, the grading of pupils by age and ability, and a lengthened school year. In 1852, three years after Mann left office to take a seat in the U. S. Congress, Massachusetts adopted the first compulsory school attendance law in American History. (Martin et al. 2000. America and Its People. pp. 340-41)
