Description:
We've had well over a century of failed school reforms, yet we keep trying to reform our schools, hoping to finally make them effective. Even the No Child Left Behind program is not really fully improving our schools. Why do most attempts at reforming our schools fail? They fail because the school management system is structured in the out dated style of 19th-century manufacturing -- a bureaucratic management system that imposes its will on the school culture without honoring what is already working well and without collaborating with all stake holders. That's a surefire way for any organization to fail, and it's a way that does not create an effective learning environment.

Stumble It!

Teachers, are you weary of administrators and "experts" telling you how to teach writing? Are you frustrated by a writing curriculum that was imposed on you but does not honor what you are already doing well? Here's a free self-help program for you and your fellow teachers to collaboratively build an effective writing program on your collective strengths. It is a K-12 Curriculum Development Process-Journal and a Guide to Best Practices and Key Resources (Also adaptable for college and adult level writing programs.)
