The Carnegie Foundation on Improvement in Education

Continuous Improvement in Education has been rapidly growing over
the past couple years. Jake Sussman has recently talked about
continuous improvement in higher education at KaiNexus, but one
group that deserves mention is the Carnegie Foundation for the
Advancement of Teaching. Founded by Andrew Carnegie in 1905 and
chartered by Congress in 1906, the Carnegie Foundation is an
independent policy and research center that focuses on every level
of education. The Carnegie Foundation is committed to developing a
network of ideas, individuals, and institutions to advance teaching
and learning. These stated missions and goals also mean that the
Carnegie Foundation is at the forefront of Continuous Improvement
in Education; they even hold an annual conference on Improvement in
Education. This year’s conference is taking place this year in San
Francisco, March 27th-29th.
