Howley, Aimee; Howley, Craig B.; Helm, Virginia – Appalachian Collaborative Center for Learning, Assessment, and Instruction in Mathematics (ACCLAIM), 2007
Rural schools, like others in the nation, are enjoined to use national and state standards as the basis for educational reform. Moreover, national standards for mathematics education were established early (1989) and have been disseminated widely. Nevertheless, little is known about the dynamics of standards-based reform of mathematics in rural…

Nicotera, Anna; Teasley, Bettie; Berends, Mark – National Center on School Choice, Vanderbilt University (NJ3), 2007
This paper empirically examines the underlying premise of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) school choice provision that students will perform better when they are given the opportunity to transfer from persistently low-performing schools to higher performing schools. We focus on students who move from schools that must offer choice under NCLB in a…
