Abstract | This paper discusses goal programming, a computer-based operations research technique that is basically a modification and extension of linear programming. The authors first discuss the similarities and differences between goal programming and linear programming, then describe the limitations of goal programming and its possible applications for educational planning and problem-solving. Most of the paper is devoted to demonstrating the formulation of linear programming and goal programming models and to presenting three detailed examples of how the goal programming model can be applied to solving different types of educational planning problems. These examples include scheduling algebra instruction for 60 high school students, designing a school district busing plan, and determining salary differentials for school district supervisory personnel under collective bargaining.
