School Effectiveness Research: Criticisms and Recommendations.
Coe, Robert; Fitz-Gibbon, Carol Taylor
Oxford Review of Education, v24 n4 p421-38 Dec 1998
Examines various criticisms of school effectiveness research, arguing that school effectiveness research needs to provide (1) justification for the interpretations of "effectiveness" defined as the unexplained part of performance in a statistical model and (2) a clearer conception of why certain relationships exist. Concludes by addressing the implications of these criticisms and provides references. (CMK)
