Reframing Reform.
Deal, Terrence E.
Educational Leadership, v47 n8 p6-7,9,11-12 May 1990
Previous educational reform efforts have not made significant, lasting improvements because they focused on correcting visible structural flaws. Educational organizations are social organisms held together by a symbolic webbing, not formal systems driven by goals, official roles, commands, and rules. Deep structures and practices must be transformed, not reformed. Includes 17 references. (MLH)
