Summary
"The first edition of How Schools Change chronicled the efforts of three very different high schools to improve teaching and learning in the early 1990's. The book - with its down-to-earth descriptions of the struggles of real teachers, parents, and students and insights into the change process - is widely considered a modern educational classic. Now, in a new second edition, Wagner concisely summarizes the decade-long history of education reform efforts and revisits the three communities at the beginning of a new century."--Jacket.
