The lecture is part of the Department of Education Reform Lecture Series and will take place in the Graduate Education Building, Room 343. Danielsen will begin his presentation with a 15-minute overview of his overall body of work on education policy. This focuses on the effects of school choice on urban planning. He will then present results from his newest research on arts-baed charter schools.
