| Summary: | This study examined the effectiveness of citizen participation strategies occurring most frequently in the administration of educational programs. Determining the most frequently occurring citizen participation strategies required an exhaustive search of case studies noting the frequency of occurrence of the various strategies. A second search of the case studies yielded twenty critical criteria or issues which were frequently mentioned in the selection of a particular citizen participation strategy. Strategies found to occur most frequently were the public hearing, advisory committees, organizations and workshops. A panel of experts was randomly selected from a list of educational leaders with experience in citizen participation. A questionnaire was drafted, field tested and then mailed to each expert. It was found that educational leaders rank the advisory committee strategy as the most effective strategy followed by the workshop, organizations and public hearings. Another conclusion reached was that when specific criteria are suggested, the preferred strategy is subject to change based on the criteria and circunstance of the situation. The study further revealed that when a specific criteria or issue is weighted most heavily, the educational leaders identify different strategies as being most effective for the various circumstances. Differences in the frequencies of first choice responses within the demographic categories were also interpreted to be significant by the chi-square test. | |
