Kluwer International Handbooks of Education #5: International Handbook of Educational Changeby A. Lieberman
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The International Handbook of Educational Change is a state of the art collection of the most important ideas and evidence of educational change. The book brings together some of the most influential thinkers and writers on educational change. It deals with issues like educational innovation, reform, restructuring, culture-building, inspection, school-review, and change management. It asks why some people resist change and what their resistance means. It looks at how men and women, older teachers and younger teachers, experience change differently. It looks at the positive aspects of change but does not hesitate to raise uncomfortable questions about many aspects of educational change either. It looks critically and controversially at the social, economic, cultural and political forces that are driving educational change. School leaders, system administration, teacher leaders, consultants, facilitators, educational researchers, staff developers and change agents of all kinds will find this book an indispensable resource for guiding them to both classic and cutting-edge understandings of educational change, no other work provides as comprehensive coverage of the field of educational change. Book News Annotation:Dedicated to Matthew B. Miles, these volumes cover: the foundations
of the field of theory and research on educational change, with
authors of some of the most formative pieces of research and thinking
reexamining their work and assessing its value; the leading edges of
educational change theory and practice, including discussions of
controversial and unaddressed issues in the educational change
literature such as the racial and gender dimensions of educational
change; large-scale strategies and the influence upon educational
change of teacher unions, governing bodies or councils, universities,
governments and other groups; and what has been achieved and what
still has to be learned about the process of school improvement.
