Abstract
|
:
|
"Since the 1960s, efforts to reform education - including various curricular changes, reading approaches, teacher preparation methods, funds for the disadvantaged, and instructional techniques - have failed to bring about true systemic change because the reforms do not deal with a different view of learning. The Hope Study was created to discover whether a radically nontraditional learning environment would achieve more positive results. In detailing the outcomes of the Hope Study, Assessing What Really Matters in Schools gives hope to innovative and progressive schools and to new and different accountability systems, while changing the conversation from an achievement discourse to a human development discourse."--BOOK JACKET.
