YEAR PUBLISHED: 1981 NOTE: 49 p.; Ed. D. Practicum, Nova University. ABSTRACT: During 1981, a study was conducted to determine whether vocational-technical school district directors and community college presidents in Wisconsin who worked under an appointed board and directors/presidents in other states who worked under an elected board perceived the effectiveness of elected and appointed boards differently. Questionnaires were administered requesting 16 directors/presidents working under appointed boards and 16 directors/presidents working under elected boards to rate the effectiveness of both types of boards in ten areas. These areas were affirmative action; board-administrator relations; budget development and approval processes; educational program development, management, maintenance, and discontinuance; fiscal accountability to taxpayers;

No matter what the abilities of a child might be, the goals of parenting are essentially the same. Whatever distinct demands result from a child's gifted ability can readily be met by parents if they are familiar with the characteristics of gifted individuals, informed about the unique needs of the gifted child, and persistent in assuring that appropriate provisions are in place within the school system that will meet their child's special needs.

About The Study The Research Team Contact Information Home ... Project Endorsements Overview The Study of Instructional Improvement (SII) is a comprehensive program of research funded by the U.S. Department of Education, the National Science Foundation, and private funding sources. As part of this program of research, a number of studies of school improvement will be conducted in elementary schools across the country over the next six years. These studies are being conducted to gain a better understanding of the design and implementation of several well-known instructional improvement models currently operating in the United States and to examine the effects of participation in such improvement models on teaching and learning in school. (back to top) Central Questions The studies will explore three central questions: How are different instructional improvement models designed, and how do they operate in the complex environment of American public education? What types of changes occur in schools that implement different instructional improvement models, and how do such changes affect instruction?

Bennett, Frederick. (1998). Computers as Tutors: Solving the Crisis in Education. Sarasota, FL: Faben Inc. Bennett is a readable writer who strongly believes that American schools would be well served by an aggressive adoption of individualized electronic instruction. He systematically points out a number of benefits, both of individualization and of computer use. The book would be better if he were less the advocate and offered a more realistic, balanced assessment of the computer's ability to contribute to education. The book is full of sweeping generalizations and quick dismissals of negative concerns. Bennett's claim that it is currently feasible to start teaching virtually every child virtually every academic subject largely via computerized instruction is particularly surprising given that he has apparently consulted few resources published after the early to mid 90's. The weaknesses in Bennett's arguments make this book easy to dismiss. Pages: Price: ISBN: Reviewed by Kate Corby, Michigan State University Using the Internet in Secondary Schools.
