Nikolai Ochoa · Answer 1

The correct option is C: accountability for educating students to higher academic standards and the economic demand for a more knowledgeable workforce

Explanation:

The two primary developments that have fueled educational reform efforts are the accountability for educating students to higher academic standards as seen in the case of No Child Left Behind Act and the Standard-Based Education (SBE). All these and many more are as a result of ensuring that students education meets a high standard. Also, an intelligent workforce is one of the factors needed to keep the economy healthy, thus another reason for fueling education reform efforts.
