It formulates a \"lean\" theory of good schooling, and identifies and explains instances of \"ineffectiveness\", such as low effect sizes of malleable conditions, for which expectations are highly strung. The book presents a systemic outlook on educational effectiveness and improvement, as it starts out from an integrated multi-level model that comprises system level, school level and instructional conditions. It offers a classification of school improvement strategies and scenarios for system level educational improvement. Above all, the analysis is very systematic, comprehensive and strongly grounded in theory. The book includes a case study analysis of various strands of improvement-oriented educational policy in the Netherlands as an illustration of some of the arguments used. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jaap Scheerens\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9401774579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789401774574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 389\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.94d","brand":"Jaap Scheerens","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44079660990719,"sku":"9789401774574","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_211d2a11-bab6-4f56-a720-8db15323bedf.jpg?v=1685482415","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/educational-effectiveness-and-ineffectiveness-jaap-scheerens-9789401774574","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
