George, Paul S.; McEwin, C. Kenneth
NASSP Bulletin, v83 n606 p10-24 Apr 1999
Growing student diversity, reports and government mandates, ninth-grade transition problems, and middle-school influences have produced new enthusiasm for high-school reorganization. Restructuring approaches such as block scheduling, differentiated instruction, academic teaming, house plans, career academies, heterogeneous grouping, and integrated curricula are transforming many high schools.
