Six regional Illinois public hearings, involving Illinois educators, students, parents, and community organizations, were held during the summer of 1971, and resulted in a wealth of information and testimony about Illinois education. Subsequently, a draft document specifying priority goals for state education was compiled and circulated to participants in a followup conference, during which 42 workshop sessions developed final recommendations for substantive and procedural goals. After further refinement, this report was produced, which includes (1) a statement of substantive goals specifying the desired eventual results of education, and (2) a statement of action objectives, summarizing in detail specific actions, who must undertake them, and the deadline for their achievement.
