Abstract:
<p> Alternative high schools serve some of the most vulnerable students and their programs present a significant challenge to evaluate. Determining the impact of an alternative high school that serves mostly at-risk students presented a significant research problem. Few studies exist that dig deeper into the characteristics and strategies of successful alternative schooling. Moreover valid program evaluation methods to identify successful alternative school practices are hit and miss. As a result, public policy and systems of accountability have either disregarded information relating to alter

Abstract:
Environmental education is a diverse field, carried out by many different types of organisations and individuals in a variety of formal and non-formal settings. In this era of accountability environmental educators are increasingly being asked to demonstrate the success of their projects through evaluation. In this thesis, I explore evaluation practice within environmental education in the UK from the perspectives of practitioners and their participants.

Unfortunately, the major objectives of the policy were not achieved, and the very problems it sought to fix still exist. One reason for this was an overreliance on testing and test scores as a lever for change. This study&rsquo;s purpose was to explore the ways in which an educational leader could bring the tools of the practitioner-scholar to bear on public policy problems worth solving. This rese

In 1984 the English National Board (the newly appointed controlling body for nurse education in England) invited schools of nursing to submit innovatory and progressive programmes for nurse education. Basis for selection was the capacity of the programmes to begin to address the demands for a new type of nursing practitioner. The programmes were to be aimed at providing an education that would enable the nurse of the future to adapt to the changing needs created by an increasingly dynamic nursing profession. It was proposed that the selected programmes would act as forerunners for new educatio
