Extractions: @import url("http://www.alliance.brown.edu/css/rs_adv.css"); Introduction Projects Publications Events ... Site Tools From "A Nation at Risk" to "No Child Left Behind", efforts to improve K-12 education have increasingly recognized that improvement requires reform of a host of interconnected systems that make up education as we know it. "School reform" still means many things to many people, but there is widespread agreement that it must be more than just "tinkering around the edges." All of our projects share in common a clear focus on applied research and technical assistance that reflects equity and diversity issues within schools. Projects relating to this topic are listed here. For a state-by-state listing of projects, see Where We Work The LAB will conduct a study that systematically investigates how the implementation of the Breaking Ranks framework supports effective high school reform and improved teaching and learning in urban low-performing schools. Through this study, the conditions and strategies necessary for achieving and sustaining positive change and improvement in low-performing schools will be documented, and resultant effects on student learning and achievement for diverse student populations will be documented. This research activity will be conducted by staff of the LAB and Center for Resource Management (CRM) in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP), the NASSP state affiliates in this region, the Providence, RI school district, the Yonkers, NY school district, and the Malden, MA school district.

The summary score may be a simple total (or average) across dimensions, a weighted total, or a more complex algorithm.

Critical Issue: Ensuring Equitable Use Of Education Technology that include at least one local educational agency. Tucson Unified School District, Tucson, arizona. education Technology National education Association 1202 http://www.ncrel.org/sdrs/areas/issues/methods/technlgy/te400.htm
Extractions: ISSUE : When a school or district decides to implement education technology into the curriculum, one of its overriding goals must be to create plans and policies for all members of the learning community to have equitable access and use . Appropriate funding and professional development represent the key means of supporting equitable access and use of technology to ensure technology literacy and to support meaningful learning for all students. OVERVIEW: Even before high-technology applications began appearing in some U.S. schools, learning opportunities were not the same for all students. Students who are already at risk of educational failure often attend schools that provide fewer opportunities for meaningful learning. The development of high-technology learning tools holds promise for leveling the playing field and ensuring equity in educational opportunity for all students in all schools. The National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering (1995) emphasize the importance of technology in promoting educational opportunities for all students: "Technology deployed in education can help remove inequities between the schools of the inner city and the suburbs, between cities and rural districts.... Technology can become the force that equalizes the educational opportunities of all children regardless of location and social and economic circumstance."
