"Improving Educational Performance: Local and Systematic Reforms,"
Volume 5 of the series published in 1997, examines improvement of
educational performance through state and local reform efforts and
through increases in school choice opportunities. Researchers
present operational frameworks that address the perceived failure
of public schools to provide high levels of student academic
performance. These frameworks included measurement, motivation, and
accountability in local school districts; state-driven systemic
reform of curriculum standards; and accountability through school
choice and school-centered reform. Perspectives presented on
accountability and educational performance compare the effects of
centralized governance and local authority, examine the relative
benefits and adverse effects of state government and market
competition on school operations, and review the tensions between
professional and community control of instruction and assessment.
