Published by the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, Education Next is a journal designed to explore the various issues involved in transforming K-12 education in the United States. As the project's mission statement notes, "Education Next partakes of no program, campaign, or ideology. It goes where the evidence points". With an editorial board that includes such notable educational researchers as Diane Ravitch and E.D. Hirsch Jr., this journal is definitely thought-provoking and worth a look. On this site, visitors can read selected full-text articles from the current issue, and from previous issues dating back to 2001. Some of the highlights from the Winter 2005 issue include pieces on character education, the training of future educators at various universities, and the salaries of teachers. Additionally, each issue also includes a number of book reviews and commentary from the journal's editors.
