Evaluate the importance of each major step in policy analysis as it relates to political choice.
Next, debate if one would consider any of these steps more important than another. Provide a
rationale to support your answer.
Solution
Answer:
There are six steps of policy analysis they are like this:
1. Verify, define, and detail the problem. The most relevant and important of them all because
many times the objectives are not clear or even contradictory from each other. A successful
policy analysis will have allocated and identified clearly the problem to be resolved in the
following steps. This is the foundation for an efficient and effective outcome of the whole
process.
2. Establish evaluation criteria. In order to compare, measure and select among alternatives,
relevant evaluation criteria must be established. In this step it must be considered cost, net
benefit, effectiveness, efficiency, equity, administrative ease, legality, and political acceptability.
Economic benefits must be considered in evaluating the policy. How the policy will harm or
benefit a particular group or groups will depend on the number of option viable Options more
difficult than others must be considered but ultimately decided through analyzing the parties
involved with policy.
3. Identify alternative policies. In order to reach this third step the other two must have been
successfully reached and completed. As it can be seen, the policy analysis involves an
incrementalist approach; reaching one step in order to go on to the next. In this third step
understanding what is sought is very important. In order to generate alternatives, it becomes
important to have a clear understanding of the problem and how to go about it. Possible
alternatives include the \"do nothing approach\" (status quo), and any other that can benefit the
outcome. Combining alternatives generates better solutions not thought of before. Relying on
past experiences from other groups or policy analysis helps to create a more thorough analysis
and understanding.
4. Evaluate alternative policies. Packaging of alternatives into strategies is the next step in
accomplishing a thorough policy analysis. It becomes necessary to evaluate how each possible
alternative benefits the criteria previously established. Additional data needs to be collected in
analyzing the different levels of influence: the economical, political and social dimensions of the
problem. These dimensions are analyzed through quantitative and qualitative analysis, that is the
benefits and costs per alternative. Political questions in attaining the goals are analyzed as to see
whether they satisfy the interested parties of the policy analysis. In doing this more concise
analysis the problem may not exist as originally identified; the actual problem statement from the
first step may suffer a transformation, which is explained after evaluating the alternatives in
greater detail.
5. Display and distinguish among alternative policies. The resul.
Policy is an explicit or implicit single decision or group of decisions which may set out directives for guiding future decisions, or guide implementation of previous decisions.

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. 1. Analysis of the existing situation.
2. The generation of policy options.
3. Evaluation of policy options.
4. Making the policy decision.
5. Planning of policy implementation.
6. Policy impact assessment.
7. Subsequent policy cycles.
3. A. Analysis of the existing situation
A policy change is normally a response to a problem or
set of problems in the sector, and must, therefore, start with
an appreciation of the educational sector and its context.
B. The process of generating policy options
New policies are usually generated when the present
situation of the sector and its context is perturbed by a
problem, a political decision or a reorganization scheme
(overall national planning). Policy options can be generated in
several different ways to accommodate the disequilibrium.
For analytical purposes one can group these processes under
the following four modes: systemic, incremental, ad hoc and
importation. In concrete situations, though, several of these
modes may be combined.
4. C. Evaluation of policy options
Policy options can be evaluated only if alternative
scenarios are developed to allow estimations of the likely
implications of the options considered. The 'imaginary'
situation that would be created if a policy option were
implemented is compared with the present situation, and the
scenario of transition from the existing to the imaginary case
is evaluated in terms of desirability, affordability, and
feasibility.
D. Making the policy decision
Rarely would a policy decision be the considered
consequence of the evaluation and previous stages of the
decision process - the culmination of a process during which
all information relevant to the decision was gathered and
carefully analyzed so that a totally optimal policy might be
designed and selected.
5. E .Planning policy implementation
Once a policy has been chosen, planning for policy
implementation should begin immediately. Although much of
the work that must be carried out during this stage can be
based on evaluations performed to make the policy decision,
planning for implementation involves concreteness absent in
earlier stages of the policy process.
F. Policy impact assessment
Once the policy has been in placing long enough to
produce results, a policy assessment check can take place. To
carry this out, it is necessary to have some sense of how long
it should take for the policy, once implemented, to take hold.
While policy output measurement can be carried out on a
continual basis, premature attempts at assessment can miss-
state the effectiveness of the policy.
6. G. Subsequent policy cycles
If a policy initiative is carried out systematically, the
process of policy design, planning, implementation,
impact assessment, and re-design will become iterative,
and, in theory, infinitely. Unfortunately, long-term policy
analysis and planning is not often carried out in such a
fashion. Often the results of verification are not ploughed
back into policy.
