Title: Systemic Change for School Improvement
Description: Despite the nationwide emphasis on school improvement, the complexities
of accomplishing desired systemic changes have been given short shrift in
policy, research, training, and practice. This article focuses on the problem of
expanding school improvement planning to better address how schools and
districts intend to accomplish designated changes. Specifically,we frame and
outline some basic considerations related to systemic change, and, to encourage
a greater policy discussion of the complexities of implementing major
school improvements on a large scale, we propose a set of policy actions.Access at: http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/publications/systemic change for school improvement.pdf (For Personal Use Only) 23pp; 913kb
