A critical breakdown in some aspect of the systemic support system that sustains the reforms could result in their abandonment at any point over an extended period of time. At the same time, there is no going back on certain aspects of the reforms. A systemic view is essential. It is obvious that these cases of successful reform are marked by attention to a multiplicity of factors in a manner that takes account of their interconnections. This multiplicity of factors is addressed simultaneously and in concert.
Reform is an ongoing process.
The results of this research strengthen the conviction that research in ordinary schools under everyday conditions is needed most. A closely related idea is to approach the research systemicly. The educational reforms being promoted today, the context in which these changes are being sought, and the various processes of fostering change are decidedly complex. Under these circumstances it is essential to approach the research systemicly. Focus future research on student roles and student work.
