It contributes to increased school effectiveness by providing people with the opportunity and necessary resources to understand and change their world. The interactive processes by which people empower each other and benefit from them are discussed in this report. Suggestions are offered to facilitate empowerment at the different levels of participation: administrator, teacher, parent, student, community, school district, and individual school. (LMI)
