Summary Note In this insightful look at the human side of school reform, Robert Evans examines the difficult hurdles to implementing innovation and explains how the best-intended efforts can be stalled by the resistance of educators who too often feel burdened and conflicted by the change process. The Human Side of School Change provides practical advice on problem solving, communication, and staff motivation.
