"Privileging the Visible": A Critique of the National Learning Targets.
Gorard, Stephen; Selwyn, Neil; Rees, Gareth
British Educational Research Journal, v28 n3 p309-25 Jun 2002

Outlines some alternative models involving targets for inputs and processes, and use of targets that are exhortative rather than directly measurable. (BT)
