With this in mind, it becomes clear that conditions of our contemporary society make some kinds of public programs necessary. Yet, many Americans find difficulty with state-sponsored public programs which, though aimed at providing a safety net for our most …
Knowledge Use and School Improvement
Current state-initiated approaches to reforming education often ignore the accumulating research on knowledge utilization in schools. This article presents survey and case data from a study of knowledge use in United States schools which suggest that a combination of mandates and public pressure, and support for school-designed efforts to improve may be an effective alternative to top- down change. The findings point to several factors that help …

Desegregation planning and implementation in Boston
Robert A. Dentler Dean, School of Education Boston University Boston, Massachusetts The argument in this article is that planning and implementation are among the key factors that make or break the effort to achieve quality desegregated education in urban school districts.
