Book excerpt: Education reform has become part of a political imperative in a number of developed countries around the world. The simultaneous movement to reform schooling and the administrative structures which deliver educational services therefore needs to be studied in order to lay bare its fundamental assumptions. This movement has been labelled "restructuring" and "reform", although the words carry different meanings in different countries.; The authors question why this reconstruction occurred at the same time in different places. What common themes are emerging in the restructuring movement? And in the 1990s, where will the movement lead schooling and what essential changes will it effect? They explore these questions by examining developments in the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Because the programmes examined have been in place for several years, the cases offer richness of detail and a wealth of ideas. This book's insights and practical detail will benefit educators both in schools and at district level, as well as students and academics in the field.

Book excerpt: Designed as a guide for practitioners, this book draws on over 600 sources to discuss school restructuring definitions, trends, and issues; achievements of a few select schools; and implementation techniques and strategies. Two overarching, indirectly stated issues pervading the reconceptualization of schooling are multiculturalism and a caring school staff. The book is organized into four parts. Part 1, Rationale and Context, presents a historical context for restructuring and a summary of the current motivations for, and implications of, educational restructuring. Part 2, Changing Roles and Responsibilities, examines the evolution of new roles for essentially all the groups that participate in public education. Part 3, Dimensions of Restructuring, explores the concepts of incremental and discontinuous change and extensively discusses current school restructuring activities along 12 dimensions: learner outcomes, curriculum, instruction, assessment, learning environment, technology, school-community relations, time schedules, governance, teacher leadership, personnel definitions and roles, and working relationships. Part 4, Process of Restructuring, captures the lessons being learned about the restructuring process and presents examples of strategies and techniques. (Contains over 600 references.) (MLH)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current research in education reveals a system that consistently delivers disappointing results. Recent reforms developed in response to the Nation at Risk report have in many cases been so restrictive that they have actually aggravated the problem - increasing retention and drop-out rates, and producing even more high school graduates who must take remedial courses in college. The authors of this timely book believe that one of the root causes of this educational decline is the failure of traditional methods and curricula to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse and multicultural school population. Their solution? Restructure public schools to accommodate the variety of student learning aptitudes present in today's classroom... and give students a greater opportunity to be successful. In these pages you'll find a number of ways to accomplish these goals. And you'll discover a variety of innovative programs that are succeeding in public schools right now, including programs from eight model schools across the country that show many of these ideas in action. Throughout the book the authors focus on options for restructuring that are practical and inexpensive to implement in any school system. They present detailed descriptions of classroom strategies and curriculum approaches that will be helpful to pre-service and in-service teachers, and to administrators interested in the many restructuring options available. Specific strategies for effective teaching are discussed, including the direct teach method, mastery learning, cooperative learning, the whole language approach to teaching reading and writing, and early intervention reading programs. The authors also present a complete"learning how to learn" curriculum that emphasizes process as well as content. Other important topics covered in depth include teaching and learning styles, management and motivation, parent/school community partnerships, and staff development. A sample staff development sequence is included in Chapter 10.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structured schools, free schools, graded schools, ungraded schools, no schools at all—the conflicts over public education in America rage on, for contemporary schools have not lived up to our expectations. The essence of the criticism reflected in the essays in this volume is that America's dual educational goals—free inquiry and social mobility-are not being met. Instead of producing enlightened citizens capable of high social and economic mobility, our schools have become warehouses of children stored as commodities, docile and immobile.

Book excerpt: This book will reset the discourse on charter schooling by systematically exploring the gap between the promise and the performance of charter schools. The authors do not defend the public school system, which for decades has failed primarily poor children of color. Instead, they use empirical evidence to determine whether charter schooling offers an authentic alternative for these children. In concise chapters, they address a series of important questions related to the recent ascent of charter schools and the radical restructuring of public education. This essential introduction includes a detailed history of the charter movement, an analysis of the politics and economics driving the movement, documentation of actual student outcomes, and alternative images of transforming public education to serve all children.

Book excerpt: As part of its school restructuring work with states, the National Governors' Association commissioned the Center for Policy Research on Education to conduct case studies of several local school districts experimenting with new structural arrangements. This case study is based on visits to four such districts: Jefferson County Schools (Louisville, Kentucky); Dade County Public Schools (Miami, Florida); Poway Unified School District (Poway, California); and New Orleans Public Schools (Louisiana). The first chapter describes how each district is restructuring its system. The Jefferson system exemplifies a change approach in an urban setting centered about professional development and increased resources for school staff. Poway exemplifies a suburban system that has empowered teachers by decentralizing most district functions to its schools. Dade County represents a district shifting to school-based management and shared decision-making in the nation's fourth largest school system. The New Orleans system demonstrates how a creative partnership with an advocacy group can facilitate new roles and models for structural change. The chapter closes by summarizing pioneering efforts of five other districts in California, Ohio, Indiana, New York State and New York City. The second chapter analyzes some common problems in approaching structural change and explains how some districts have overcome barriers. The final chapter summarizes district initiatives and discusses implications for state actions. If states do not act to support and reinforce district goals and actions, schools will be trapped by conflicting expectations and be unable to change. Included are 12 references. (MLH)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the role of technology in restructuring education by analyzing how it influences seven important relationships in the educative process: (1) teacher-student relationships; (2) student-content relationships; (3) teacher-content relationships; (4) student-context relationships; (5) teacher-context relationships; (6) content-context relationships; and (7) educational system-environment relationships. After a brief historical overview of the uses of technology in education, the paper discusses the nature of systems in education and examines the process of restructuring through systems change in the seven pairs of relationships as they exist today and as they might change in a restructured educational system. How educational technology can empower teachers and students is then discussed with emphasis on how electronic technology is transforming the way information is communicated and processed. A brief discussion of the role of the teacher in evaluating the worth of content--i.e., selecting the best of culture for sharing with students--concludes the report. (ALF)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privatisation and Commercialisation in Public Education asks how publicness is being redefined through the restructuring of nominally public school systems. Over the past few decades, governments have engineered a wave of reforms in their public systems opening them to privatisation and commercialisation. In public education systems competition, choice and autonomy have become entrenched vectors of these reforms. This edited collection carefully examines the difference between privatisation and commercialisation and traces the varying effects privatised and commercialised policy reforms have had in different educational contexts. Many countries have approached the thorny issues of school choice and school autonomy in different ways, and this book investigates the impact of these agendas across the USA, UK, Australia, New Zealand, parts of Europe, sub-Saharan Africa and India. This book brings together contemporary, international perspectives from high-profile policy academics on both privatisation and commercialisation in public education systems under the provocation of how the ‘public’ nature of schooling is changing. This is essential reading for those interested in the idea that current education policy reforms are reshaping what might be considered core educational practices in public schooling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The restructuring of schools systems across the world has been controversial.

This book explores the restructuring movement, with a particular emphasis on how decentralisation of power has affected the quality of education. It provides a broad and international picture of educational reform.
