Please review the You Decide content item. Imagine that you are the head of the Florida Department of Education. The teachers have voted and unionization is in the making. Review the information from our three characters in the You Decide to determine how you would respond to each of their concerns. Let’s take these questions one section at a time. Who wants to be first?

I. Was unionization the only alternative? What changes should the teachers expect, and within what timeframe(s)? What changes will not surface as a result of this unionization? Why?
II. What changes, if any, should the district managers make? What concerns, legally and politically, will they face?
III. How do demographics and economics come into play with this unionization effort?
