75.061-9 - Community-Based Education Reform: Implications for Policy and Governance
Mon, April 20, 2:15 to 3:45pm, Hyatt, Floor: West Tower - Green Level, Crystal BCSession Type: Roundtable Session
Abstract
Given the current top-down nature of school reform (i.e. NCLB, high-stakes testing, accountability etc), policymakers and other stakeholders can benefit from contemporary interdisciplinary research on schools, neighborhoods, and the multiple constituencies represented by community-based approaches to educational improvement and change. This symposium will include contributions from scholar utilizing several theoretical, methodological and analytical approaches to understand community-based education reform in urban settings.
