Amber Mason for Systemic Change
Amber Mason for Systemic Change
“I love Atlanta. Georgia State University was the perfect place to engage with scholars who champion for urban education. I chose educational policy studies because I see policy as a strong vehicle for systemic change in education. As a former high school math teacher, I have witnessed how poorly written policy can get in the way of great teaching. When this happens, no one wins. My hope was that being accepted to the program would teach me how to use research to be an agent of change to better policy for education.”
