"We Are Doing This Already": Teacher Talk about Standards in Britain and America.
Lofty, John S.
English Journal, v89 n4 p97-104 Mar 2000
Examines the evolving relationships between teachers and standards in Maine and in Derbyshire, England. The politics of who develops the curriculum and how it is implemented have strongly shaped teachers' attitudes toward working with standards. Notes that while teachers believe they are substantially meeting those standards, documenting and demonstrating this is a complex challenge. (SR)
