2.“An education that prepares every student for civic and political engagement not only supports political equality but may also lead to increased economic fairness”(Allen 11).

3.“The participatory paradigm demands a higher educational standard than the vocational, and meeting that standard requires that more resources be allocated for schools. It should not be necessary to argue for a vigorous public commitment to civic education in our society”(Allen 9).

4."If we are to embrace an education for participatory readiness, we need to aim our pedagogic and curricular work not at any one of these three capacities but at what lies behind all of them: the idea of civic agency as the activity of co-creating a way of life. This view of politics supports all three models of citizenship because it nourishes future civic leaders, activists, and politicians. Such an education ought also to permit a reintegration of these roles"(Allen 12)

2."This view is tightly connected to a technocratic economic policy that focuses on the dissemination of skills as a way to reduce inequality in a technology-dependent economy. The result has been massively increased investment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics education—STEM—and correspondingly reduced outlays for the humanities"(Allen 9).

3."The participatory paradigm demands a higher educational standard than the vocational, and meeting that standard requires that more resources be allocated for schools"(Allen 9).

4."When he considers curriculum, he is explicit only about vocational goals. Thus he argues that educational institutions should be made broadly accessible; elite institutions, which serve mainly privileged youth from the highest income brackets, should draw students from other backgrounds; schools should be run efficiently; and states should increase investment in "high-quality professional training.""(Allen 10).

2.Every student should have access to civic education not just districts in the upper class.

3.Civic education is not commonly taught in schools because extra recourses are needed. Only schools who get funded more, so schools in rich neighborhood's get this knowledge.

4.In order to lead and have a voice in out communities we need to have a good foundation of knowledge so that we are confident and understand what is going on.

2.A lot of money is invested in STEM because our world and economy depends on a lot of that knowledge to sustain and work itself.

3.Vocational education gets funded for. There is resources for that eduction in every school.

4.Hight quality STEM focused education should be offered at all school as it will set students up for the most success.
