Planning in a Cold Climate.

Pratt, David

Journal of Curriculum and Supervision, v14 n2 p109-25 Win 1999

Explores four factors determining the success or failure of the 1911-12 polar expeditions. These factors, with implications for planning in general and curriculum planning in particular, are: a clear focus on priorities, efficient use of funds, expertise developed through training and consulting lead scholars, and reliance on meticulous planning, not heroism.
