The Limits of Law-Based School Reform : Vain Hopes and False Promises Hardback
by Todd A. DeMitchell, Richard Fossey
Hardback
Description
A confusing and contentious debate often surrounds law-based school reforms (lawsuits, regulations, statutes, and collective bargaining provisions).
DeMitchell and Fossey argue that law-based reforms have not changed the fundamental character of the nation's schools.
Although hundreds of law-based initiatives have been introduced, most have had little effect on learning.
Law-based reform is an important and necessary strategy, but by itself it is not enough to change the way children are schooled.
Rational decision making, which undergirds most law-based reform, can take us only part way to the schools our children deserve.
