Fullan, Michael G.; Miles, Matthew B. – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Instead of developing a new strategy for each reform wave, educators must learn how to foster continuous improvement. Reforms often fail because of faulty maps of change, complex problems, overreliance on symbols, superficial solutions, misunderstood resistance, attrition, and misuse of knowledge. Success means recognizing change as a systemic,…

Kaplan, George R. – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Although U.S. Education Secretary Lamar Alexander's forceful presence on the educational scene has compelled attention and eclipsed his predecessors, we are a long way from knowing whether this consummate politician and his espoused causes (such as America 2000) are destined to make a serous difference in U.S. education. (MLH)

Bell, Terrel H.; Elmquist, Donna L. – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Although U.S. Education Secretary Lamar Alexander's strategy includes a track for today's students, emphasis has been on the new generation of schools advocated in the America 2000 plan.

The surgeon…

Harper, Judith A. – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Attempting to grade Lamar Alexander's first year in office, this article assigns a "D" for the U.S. Education Secretary's seeming ignorance of funding cuts, teacher layoffs, inappropriate materials and resources, inadequate or unsafe school buildings comprising the "real world of education." Lamar also fares dismally for pushing educational…

Duke, Daniel L. – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
A 1987 grant from the Danforth Foundation enabled the University of Virginia Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies to develop and pilot a restructured principal preparation program several years in advance of a program restructuring deadline.

Kirschenbaum, Howard – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Today's "just say no" approach to moral education is as simplistic as the values clarification emphasis of the 1960s and 1970s. One solution is to combine the best approaches of past decades. The Comprehensive Values Education model is progressive and all-embracing in content, methodology, and application throughout school and community. (13…

Ascher, Carol – Phi Delta Kappan, 1992
Explains antecedents, program variations, and rationale for developing single-sex schools for African-American males and females.
