Cultivating Innovation: How a Charter/District Network Is Turning Professional Development Into Professional Practice

author: Kevin Andrews, Michael Rothman
description: "If an effort like the charter school movement, which affects only 1% of public school children, is to succeed in effecting broader change, we must find ways to disseminate isolated successes to the larger system. ...
