Reviews
"A mine of information and a must read for educators and the public alike." -- Claude Ury , City Book Review, "Essays in this volume do more than add another layer to the contemporary school reform debate. The book's unique contribution is the mixture of alternatives that it offers for the future of American school reform." -- Pasi Sahlberg , director general of CIMO in Finland, and author of Finnish Lessons, " The Futures of School Reform will be an interesting addition to any library devoted to the topic of systemic change. Its primary appeal lies in the way it brings together an array of ideologically diverse perspectives regarding what needs to be done in order to transform American K-12 schooling from its current dysfunctional state to a system that is truly responsive to 21st-century learning needs. This book can also serve as a useful resource for students in a graduate course on systemic change." -- Deepak Prem Subramony , Educational Technology, "The discussion delivers a commendable performance of raising awareness and presenting specific considerations in the undertaking of public school reform." -- G. Moreno , CHOICE, "American education is at a crossroads. In The Futures of School Reform , Mehta, Schwartz, and Hess present six essays on education reform strategies that will spark a provocative discussion on how to transform our education system." -- Jeb Bush , governor of Florida from 1999-2007, and chairman of the Foundation for Excellence in Education , "Our country is faced with an absolutely frightening crisis and challenge: we must radically improve our education system or our children will simply be unable to compete in the global economy. The diverse voices in this book demonstrate that there is no single solution, but the writers are united in their urgency. This eye-opening book should be required reading for educators and policy makers across America." -- Geoffrey Canada , president and CEO, Harlem Children's Zone , "Most literature on education reform is like a lighthouse, shining a beacon from a distant, perhaps unreachable place. This book offers readers a compass to point the way forward. It sets the true north for improvement in this most important American institution." -- John Deasy , superintendent, Los Angeles Unified School District

Synopsis
The Futures of School Reform represents the culminating work of a three-year discussion among national education leaders convened by the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Based on the recognition that current education reform efforts have reached their limits, the volume maps out a variety of bold visions that push the boundaries of our current thinking. Taken together, these visions identify the leverage points for generating dramatic change and highlight critical trade-offs among different courses of action. The goal of this book is not to present a menu of options. Rather, it is to surface contrasting assumptions, tensions, constraints, and opportunities, so that together we can better understand--and act on--the choices that lie before us., The Futures of School Reform represents the culminating work of a three-year discussion among national education leaders convened by the Harvard Graduate School of Education.
