- Summary:
-
This guidebook is designed to serve as a resource and road map for restructuring schools, focusing on the development of a systematic process to implement and manage change. Chapter 1 defines restructuring as the reform of school-organizational relationships and processes to increase student learning and performance, with a focus on the following eight elements: (1) the quality of learning experience and outcomes; (2) the professional role and performance of teachers; (3) collaborative leadership and management; (4) a redefined and integrated curriculum; (5) systematic planning and measurement of results; (6) multiple learning sites and school schedules; (7) coordination of community resources, human and fiscal; and (8) equity, fairness, and inclusion for all students. Chapter 2 expands on the above eight elements of restructuring, and chapter 3 describes the Learning Environments Consortium, a regional self-help network of schools that helps schools develop effective personalized instruction programs. The fourth chapter describes the Coalition of Essential Schools and Re:Learning program, and chapter 5 offers a framework for a restructured school. The final chapter presents four strategies for change, examines obstacles to change, and describes the eight steps of the Comprehensive Assessment of School Environments Information Management System (CASE-IMS) model. Two tables and one figure are included. Appendices contain a typology of school-improvement factors, the premises of outcome-based education (OBE), and a description of the A+chieving Excellence program. (LMI)
