Download or read book Theoretical Perspectives on Attempts at Planned Educational Change in Kenya and Zimbabwe written by Robert Douglas Sauder and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the field of comparative education, studies of school systems in the developing world can yield interesting and useful knowledge both for the enhancement of reform efforts there, and the understanding of education everywhere. Many case studies exist of attempts to plan and implement educational change. However few of these are integrated within comprehensive frameworks. Consequently there is limited scope for comparison among cases. This study examines four cases of planned educational change--two in Zimbabwe and two in Kenya. The four cases are examined within two theoretical perspectives: the management perspective and the world systems perspective. The former emphasizes the primacy of appropriate management of educational reform in such areas as decentralized administration and contingency analysis. The latter centres on the role of political dynamics such as the fragility of the state and notions of societal progress within the world system, and the effects these have on educational reform. This study undertakes two levels of analysis. At one level it assesses to what extent each of the reforms achieved their stated goals. At a second level it offers a comparison of the two theoretical perspectives in an attempt to assess which perspective provides a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamics and outcomes of the planned educational change in East Africa. Historical descriptive analysis of the cases elucidates many constraints to planned educational change in Kenya and Zimbabwe, both administrative and political. Although both perspectives are valuable in understanding educational reform, the world systems perspective offers a more comprehensive framework for understanding the key political and economic dynamics that the management perspective does not. These findings have implications for scholars, administrators and policy makers.
Download or read book Change Forces written by Michael Fullan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of the processes of educational change is said to be the missing ingredient in attempts to bring about educational innovation and reform. Whether these efforts involve grass roots innovation or large-scale societal reform, failure to understand and act on existing knowledge of the change process has accounted for the widespread lack of success in making educational improvements. This volume analyzes what is known about successful or productive change processes, and identifies corresponding action strategies at the individual, school, local and state levels. Included in this book is a major treatment of the topic of the 'ethics of planned change', a neglected topic in recent literature, especially since strategies for intervening in the change process are receiving more attention. This book is intended to be used by teachers in training and in service, teacher trainers, educational researchers, education historians and administrators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Handbook of Educational Change is a state of the art collection of the most important ideas and evidence of educational change. The book brings together some of the most influential thinkers and writers on educational change. It deals with issues like educational innovation, reform, restructuring, culture-building, inspection, school-review, and change management. It asks why some people resist change and what their resistance means. It looks at how men and women, older teachers and younger teachers, experience change differently. It looks at the positive aspects of change but does not hesitate to raise uncomfortable questions about many aspects of educational change either. It looks critically and controversially at the social, economic, cultural and political forces that are driving educational change. School leaders, system administration, teacher leaders, consultants, facilitators, educational researchers, staff developers and change agents of all kinds will find this book an indispensable resource for guiding them to both classic and cutting-edge understandings of educational change, no other work provides as comprehensive coverage of the field of educational change.
