An Alternative Approach to the Study of School Effectiveness in Third World Countries.
Riddell, Abby Rubin
Comparative Education Review, v33 n4 p481-97 Nov 1989
Challenges the prevailing view that educational effectiveness in Third World countries is related to school-based factors rather than student background variables. Uses a study of academic achievement in 32 Zimbabwean schools to illustrate the use of a multilevel regression model for school effectiveness research. Contains 42 references. (SV)
