From Individual Differences to Learning Communities--Our Changing Focus.
Prawat, Richard S.
Educational Leadership, v49 n7 p9-13 Apr 1992
Although teacher effectiveness research prescriptions predominate in today's classrooms, educational research is being influenced by the work of Piagetian cognitive psychologists and educational anthropologists like Shirley Brice Heath and cultural psychologists like Michael Cole. These experts stress the importance of personal invention and the learning community in explaining what youngsters know. (13 references) (MLH)
