When Outsiders Try to Change Schools from the Inside.
McDonald, Joseph P.
Phi Delta Kappan, v71 n3 p206-12 Nov 1989
Good work by "outsiders" requires more than the right attitude concerning school complexities on the inside. Outside change agents can use seven strategies: acknowledging values, problem-setting, short-circuiting the system, one-legged conferencing, text-making, curriculum-making, and observing with feedback. Includes 24 references. (MLH)
