KnowledgeWorks Foundation looks for ways to offer practical solutions to tough education problems. A cornerstone of this effort is to understand and engage the public in the problem-solving process. In order to gauge public opinion and knowledge about education issues in Ohio, KnowledgeWorks Foundation conducts a random sample survey of Ohio residents annually. Survey results are used to help inform public policy decision-makers of the public's views and to inform the Foundation's programs.
