This first issue is made up entirely of editorial perspective pieces on different topics (like charter schools, etc) that will each eventually be one part of their own section when our full website launches in the spring. Along with these perspective pieces each section will have featured academic articles, background pieces, and other media related to the topic area. We invited a range of people to submit different perspectives pieces for this first issue so the group is pretty diverse! I have included a list below.
