Give an example of an educational policy tool that government uses or could use. Why might policy makers choose to use these tools (rather than another alternative) to deal with a particular public problem?
What will be an ideal response?
Educating is the government providing information, so citizens can make their own choices (e.g., food labels). This tool is less expensive than many other tools and less invasive than a regulatory tool, and it provides the public with the appropriate information to make informed choices.
