• catalog abstract "Authors Louis and Kruse examine the question: Why do some school communities succeed and others fail? They take a look at five urban schools that have been attempting restructuring for several years - enough time to show results. They describe how the development of a professional community - or the lack thereof - impacts the implementation of change and how teachers' efforts at professionalism can positively affect the process. Focusing on the structural, social, and human conditions of schooling, the authors describe how to form a professional community. Using their extensive research on professionalism, they develop a framework for evaluating the elements of community and then use the framework to present a cross-case analysis of various schools in the study. Professionalism and Community is a potent source of information for all policymakers and school leaders who are committed to long-term, effective change. It reveals a significant reason why so many well-intentioned, well-planned reforms fail, in spite of individual commitment and the heroic efforts of the participants. By observing those who have gone before, readers can learn important lessons from this study and discover the keys to making their own reform efforts work.".
