Making Holistic Changes to the School Structure.
Babiuk, Gary
Education Canada, v39 n1 p20-21 Spr 1999
A case study describes implementation of holistic changes at Jubilee Junior High School in Edson, Alberta (Canada). Changes included "large-group" instruction by a team of teachers; outcome-based assessment, including portfolios; integrated curriculum; and replacement of the school's hierarchical administration with a leadership team of staff, students, and parents. The change process, benefits, and community opposition are discussed. (CDS)
