Description
This book presents cases of schools (Part One) and programs at the district level and beyond (Part Two) in which reform, while driven by high-stakes accountability, became larger and deeper through data-driven dialogue, culture change, organizational learning, and other elements of high performing cultures. Commentaries on cross-case patterns by Ann Lieberman and Michael Fullan and a chapter on "now what?" first steps provide implications for initiating deep change that results in improved student learning outcomes even in challenging activity settings.
