Sinopsis

Nothing short of a renegotiation of the division of labour between teachers and administrators will ensure the success of current efforts to restructure American schools. This new book explores how this renegotiation can be accomplished - proposing specific changes in school organization that will untangle existing hierarchies and achieve the critical balance between administrative concern for coordination and individual teachers' needs for autonomy. Going beyond short-term compromise solutions, the authors draw on the underlying logic that governs professional relationships within schools. They explain how replacing existing formal structures - for example, structures that govern reporting relationships, decision making, and collective bargaining - with more informal relationships can provide the necessary integration of management decision making at the district, school and classroom levels.

De la contraportada

"Shedd and Bacharach provide new insights, practical perspectives, and a scholarly justification for changing the archaic structure of our schools and the management of the professionals working in them... This unusually significant book will remain important for a long time to come."
--James W. Guthrie, director of Policy Analysis for California Education, School of Education, University of California, Berkeley
