Synopsis

This monograph questions the adequacy of prevailing conceptualizations of the professional development school for developing the practices, procedures, and pedagogy required for effective urban education. The PDS approach is analyzed with respect to conditions necessary for children's development and education in diverse urban schools and communities. The author offers a framework for rethinking and expanding the basic PDS model to reflect alternate conceptions of collaborative partnerships for developing urban schools.
