The authors draw on careful ethnographic research collected over the entire four years of the San Diego reforms, in order to identify, not only how teachers, principals and other district educators were shaped by the large-scale reforms, but also the ways in which the reform unfolded. In doing so, the book shows more broadly how actors throughout a school system can change the views of leaders and impact the larger reform process.
Reviews / Votes
"This book is a critical read for any of us who engage in or observe attempts to make change in urban school districts." --TCRecord: The Vioce of Scholarship in Education (October 13, 2006) "Reform as Learning is a thoughtful and comprehensive book that chronicles the relatively short history of the San Diego reform, using a sociological lens to examine the challenges of implementing an untested program of considerable depth and scope and to provide several explanations for why the reform failed to achieve what its creators promised." -- Barbara Schneider, American Journal of Sociology, Volume 113, Issue 6, Page 1745-1747, May 2008More details
