Hardbound. This book was prepared from the papers and discussions associated with an international workshop on Issues and Practices in Planning the Quality of Education organized by the International Institute for Educational Planning in November 1989. The first part considers the differing information requirements for different levels of decision making in education and a review of established educational information collection practices. The second explores the linkages between information and the quality of education. The third considers two areas where many countries have experienced difficulties in the collection and use of educational information: the dialogue between the producers and consumers of information, and the technical issues associated with the collection, preparation, and analysis of information. A conclusion summarizes the fundamental needs for training and research that emerged from the preceding chapters.

Developing and updating school improvement plans is an annual ritual for virtually all school principals and their school improvement committees. Still, large numbers of schools continue to produce disappointing outcomes. The authors believe that part of the problem is the result of plans that focus on the wrong targets and that rely on ineffective strategies for improvement. To help principals and their school improvement committees develop and implement plans with a greater likelihood of success, the authors offer a step-by-step process for school improvement planning. They go on to pinpoint specific school improvement goals, including raising reading and mathematics achievement, building robust school cultures, addressing the needs of English language learners, improving instruction, and reducing absenteeism and dropouts. For each goal, a variety of objectives and proven strategies is presented along with sample school improvement plans. The book addresses the differences in planning to turn around a low-performing school, planning to sustain improvements over time, and planning to move a good school to a great school.

Quality Teaching for Quality Learning: Planning through Reflection provides teachers, as reflective practitioners, with the knowledge and skills to structure quality pedagogy to achieve high quality learning outcomes for their students and schools. It encourages teachers to constantly re-assess their practice in the light of the context in which they teach. Quality Teaching for Quality Learning: Planning through Reflection provides teachers with an understanding of the dimensions of Quality Teaching: intellectual quality, quality learning environment and significance. Each element of each dimension is examined by asking what it is; where it comes from; what it means for teaching; and what it means for learning. Teaching strategies and learning activities are outlined for each element to support program - and lesson - planning and assessment and the evaluation of teaching and learning. The text is essential reading for teachers who want an overview of how to plan before, during and after teaching experiences and to know how to assess the quality of their teaching and planning. The material presented is the result of many years of working with teachers to best assist their professional growth. The authors are the coordinators of the extensive and highly esteemed primary education programs at the University of Newcastle at the Port Macquarie, Newcastle and Ourimbah campuses. They have published extensively for school and academic audiences in a variety of areas including literacy, numeracy and social education.
