備考/ NotesNotes |
The student in this class should learn to:
・Know the basic constitutional roles and responsibilities of the levels of government;
・Be able to identify the stages of the policy process, and the primary players in the official roles;
・Demonstrate working knowledge of the policy analysis process;
・Demonstrate concise and analytical writing of policy projects;
・Demonstrate the ability to critically review and summarize a policy study;
・Articulate and apply a public service perspective to public policy issues;
・Contribute to the policy process information and analysis;
・Learn and apply group facilitation skills that can be used in policy and citizen deliberations;
・Demonstrate sound public speaking skills related to the policy process;
・Critically assess and debate case studies of policies at different levels of government;
・Learn to analyze public policy conflicts, and use processes to help resolve policy disputes in a deliberative, consensual way;
・Understand the basic accountability and performance measurement processes used in government policy and management;
・Identify roles that public managers and policy analysts play and learn more about when they are most appropriate in the policy process;
・Understand policy networks, how they operate to develop and distribute policy information and ways to participate in them;
・Discuss the ethical issues involved in many dimensions of the policy process, including what information is used, what forums and citizen contact are organized, and how the analyst and manager act ethically within the broader policy arenas in which they operate.
This course is designed to acquaint you with the theoretical and practical dimensions of developing and managing effective public policy which includes your role as a policy analyst and as a proactive participant in the broader policy process working for a program or an agency. The overall focus of the class is on understanding the policy process, how to facilitate dialogue in the policy process with citizens and elected officials, how to frame issues and conduct policy analysis, and manage the policy process from agenda setting through implementation. This is the MPA class where you learn some basics of the constitutional and policy process. You should gain an understanding and appreciation for the political and administrative environments within which public policy is developed, implemented and evaluated. You will also gain an understanding of how to assess policy environments, and policy options as well as build a case for taking policy actions. We will cover the primary models and approaches used in public policy to explain policy development and change. These models help us focus on important aspects of the policy process and understand systematically how the actors and environment work together.
Second, we will discuss the varied roles of the public manager and policy analyst. Some of these roles include facilitator, expert, policy entrepreneur working with stakeholders inside and outside the agency, policy implementer who takes policy made through statutes or court orders and effectively makes them work, and public trustee. While a public employee is obligated to play certain roles, to some degree, you will also decide what roles you think appropriate and are willing to play as an analyst, lobbyist or manager in the public policy process. Your decisions may vary depending on your view of the role of the public servant in democratic society, your personality, and your views on the flexibility or discretion inherent in following the law as written down. We will cover and try out some key skills of public managers and analysts, such as conflict resolution, policy briefing writing, speaking up in the class through short presentations and in groups, group facilitation and leading productive discussions.
Third, as a participant in the democratic policy process, you need to be a succinct, clear and persuasive writer as well as being able to speak in public forums. You will write a policy research paper using applied and commonly used writing policy formats in this class. You will work through the stages of a policy analysis report. You will work in small groups both in class and on projects. Employers consistently tell us that being good team players is perhaps the most important skill for holding a job and being promoted so we will talk about the skills and ways to manage teams.
