No Pain, No Gain.
Sizer, Theodore R.
Educational Leadership, v48 n8 p32-34 May 1991
American education is stuck on well-intentioned, deeply traditional, but flawed ideas about teaching and learning. Failure to acknowledge a school's synergistic quality either paralyzes faculty or smothers changes already introduced. Pretending that serious restructuring can be done without honest confrontation is a cruel illusion. (MLH)
