Trouble In Paradise
In this article, the authors recount and explore critical dilemmas in the development of a secondary-level interdisciplinary teaching team. Reaching consensus on significant pedagogical issues represents one of the promises of teaming: the strengthening of teachers' work by breaking down isolation and collectively struggling with substantive questions of teaching and learning. But this analysis reveals the complex and often contradictory work of …
Professional development to promote schoolwide inquiry
Professional Development That Addresses School Capacity
We argue that professional development should address five aspects of school capacity: teachers' knowledge, skills, and dispositions; professional community; program coherence; technical resources; and principal leadership.

More comprehensive professional development occurred through …

Leadership Efforts That Facilitate Classroom Thoughtfulness in Social Studies
This paper investigates the ways in which department chair and principal leadership can influence the teaching of thinking in secondary Social Studies classes. Based upon research in 16 high schools, leadership efforts in the areas of curriculum program development, faculty collegiality, staff development, and school culture are explored. Instructional leadership at the department level that generates a common vision around a shared conceptualiza…
Prejudice and Aids
Discrimination against people on the basis of physical or mental infirmity is common and creates a considerable burden for sufferers. There has been considerable debate about the prejudice against people with disease resulting from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. This study reports on the views and experiences of stigmatization by 192 outpatients with HIV infection interviewed at two London teaching hospitals. Despite reticence abou…
Neuropsychiatry of Aids
Cognitive Simplicity and Prejudice
The hypothesis that cognitive simplicity is positively related to prejudice was tested indirectly with data on college students. The relation of tolerance (measured by questions regarding desegregation of the campus) to both accuracy and similarity in perceiving the attitudes of others (measured on Crespi thermometers) was evaluated by Student's t-test. Intolerant students were less accurate in predicting the responses of others and showed a grea…
