Standards-based Accountability: Horse Trade or Horse Whip? by Margaret E. Goertz - 2001This chapter looks at how schools, school districts, and states are
responding to the current push for performance based accountability.
Data from a three-year study of ten states, twenty-three school districts,
and fifty-seven schools, as well as national surveys of state policies,
are used to address two sets of questions. First, what are the key
design elements of state accountability systems and how do they vary
across states? Second, what do accountability systems look like at the
school and district level? What are the similarities and differences in
these systems in diverse state policy environments?To view the full-text for this article you must be signed-in with the appropriate membership. Please review your options below: | This article originally appeared as NSSE Yearbook Vol 100, No. 2. |
