Explainer Story

My final assignment in this course was writing an explainer story about how education policy in the United States may change from the Biden to Trump Administration after Trump won his second term as president last November. In the story, I use information from multiple online sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, World Health Organization and The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 to try to explain potential changes in America’s education policy under the second Trump Administration. In the story, I discuss the potential shuttering of the Department of Education, what Trump and Biden already did with education policy in their first terms and the performance of K-12 and college education during each president’s first term in office.
