Opis

Educators have already taken on board the idea that educational change and school reform are not as easy to accomplish as first expected. In this book, Michael Fullan, arguably one of the world's leading authors on the issue of educational change, explores why this continues to be the case, and builds on the lessons that he set out so clearly in the first two volumes of his trilogy on the subject. This book is concise, accessible, and the message contained is clearly written with a broad audience mind both for academics in education and general reader.

Recenzje

Review of Change Forces: The Sequel'... the field of educational reform and change is now much richer and sophisticated than it was five years ago and as such, the new insights contained in the sequel are to be welcomed ... 'Change Forces: The Sequel' repeats this winning formula by providing an investigation of change that is contemporary and firmly located within global and post-modern context.' - British Journal of Educational Studies

'My respect for Michael Fullan and his work over the years makes me dangerously close to being classified as a groupie His two latest books illustrate his long-recognised and enviable skills as a writer with the capacity to clarify issues we've dimly known about, and bring them into startlingly clear focus Change Forces with a Vengeance is the final book in a trilogy that has been showing us more of the factors that can make change successful whether at the level of the school, the district (LEA) or the state and importantly, how they articulate with one another If you are a head of department, a deputy, a head, an LEA office or adviser or a DfES official, buy both.' - Tim Brighouse, Times Educational Supplement
