Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The goal of new accountability educational policyis that schools, as the unit of analysis andresponsibility, will seek to improve studentperformance. That is, that the schools willefficiently seek ways to improve the output of itsorganization. Efficiency is a central concept in thestudy and theory of organizations. Yet, schools arewidely regarded as institutional organizations thatseek to maximize legitimacy rather than efficiency. Bureaucratic theory asserts that schools will adoptstructural changes that enhance the attainment ofproductivity goals while institutional theorypredicts that environmental legitimacy will outweighproductivity as the criterion for structural change.This study contrasts the bureaucratic andinstitutional accounts of organizational behavior totest which best interpret secondary school levelbehavior and decisions. It analyzes differences inschool level behavior in response to pressuregenerated by California s school accountability system.
