Appendix A Populating A Vision for 21st Century Education

In this appendix I list and describe the social actors credited by the Premiers Technology Council (2010) as having contributed to the development of A Vision for 21st Century Educationeither as members or consultants (pp. 38-40). To add further context, I searched online 1 to find supplementary details. It should be noted, however, that my purpose here is less in singling-out participants than in highlighting the relative de-privileging of teachers voices. At the same time, I assume this appendix helps demonstrate whose voices are trumping teachers.
