One of the great challenges now facing education reformers in the
United States is how to devise a consistent and intelligent
framework for instruction that will work across the nation's
notoriously fragmented and politically conflicted school systems.
Various programs have tried to do that, but only a few have
succeeded. Improvement by Design looks at three different programs,
seeking to understand why two of them - America's Choice and
Success for All - worked, and why the third - Accelerated Schools
Project - did not. The authors identify four critical puzzles that
the successful programs were able to solve: design, implementation,
improvement, and sustainability. Pinpointing the specific solutions
that clearly improved instruction, they identify the key elements
that all successful reform programs share. Offering urgently needed
guidance for state and local school systems as they attempt to
respond to future reform proposals, Improvement by Design gets
America one step closer to truly successful education systems.
