| Abstraksi Narasi | : | A group of Israeli high school students (n = 11) from two socially distinct schools rea aloud a textbook account of a 1920 bloody encounter between jews and Arabs. The study aimed at examining the relation between the textbook account and the students` formation of historical perceptions. Prior to reading the textbook excerpts, students wrote accounts of the event from their memory (the prenarrative). After being questioned about the prennaratives, the students read the textbook excerpts aloud and explained their understanding of the event. Twelve months later, they wrote another account of the event (the postnarrative). The study found that students ``culturally comprehended`` the textbook, or in other words, that the nature of the students` recollection was strongly affected by the social memory of the group within which they lived. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In May 2000, a class action lawsuit on behalf of California`s public school students, Williams v. State of California, was filed in state court in an effort to make the state address inequities in its public schools. The central issue of the case was students` access to the ``bare essentials`` of public education: qualified teachers, current textbooks, and adequate and safe facilities. The author analyzes the relationship between school and istrict characteristics and the base year of the Academic Performance Index (API), the state`s main measure of school performance, focusing on variables related to the main issues in the Williams case. The findings support the plaintiffs` arguments that the basic educational necessities targeted by the case should be the object of state policy in conjunction with accountability policies. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This article describes both the process and products of a cooperative inquiry project between two educational researchers-one from literacy education and one from mathematics education. The collaboration took place in an undergraduate, inquiry-based mathematics classroom in which the researchers sought to develop a share vision of learning and literacy. The researchers discovered that they each used a diferent learning model to make sense of mathematics instruction, and that both of these models obscured important aspects of learning in a standards-based mathematics classroom. An alternative model of learning and literacy in mathematics that takes into consideration both models is presented, as well as the process through which the researchers negotiated this share perspective. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | In the wake of both the end of court-ordered school desegregation and the growing popularity of accountability as a mechanism to maximize student achievement, the authors explore the association between racial segregation and the percentage of students passing high-stakes tests in Florida`s schools. Results suggest that segregation matters in predicting schools-level performance on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test after control for other known and purported predictors of standardized test performance. Also, these results suggest that neither recent efforts by the state of Florida to equalize the funding of Education nor current efforts involving high-stakes testing will close the Black-White achievement gap without consideration of the racial distribution of students across schools. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This article, Based on a longitudinal interview study of 50 new teachers in Massachusetts, presents respondents` reasons for staying in their schools, moving to new schools, or leaving public school teaching within their first 3 years of teaching. although the respondents` prior career orientations, financial situations, and preparation played a role in their career decisions, their experiences at the school site were central in influencing their decisions. Teachers who felt succesful with students ad whose schools were organized to support them in their teaching-providing collegial interaction, opportunities for growth, appropriate assignments, adequate resource, and schoolwide structures supporting student learning-were more likely to stay in their schools, and in teaching, than teaching whose schools were not so organized. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This article describes an extended collaboration between a development team and an evaluation team working with GenScope, an open-ended exploratory software tool. in some respects, this was a routine evaluation, documenting substantial gains (of roughly 1 SD) in genetics reasoning ability in all but 1 of 17 classes, despite challenges presented by school computer-lab settings. Relative to matched comparison classes, larger gains were found in technical biology and general science courses but not in college prep or honors biology courses. In other respects, our effort illustrates the value of new views of assessment, technology, and research. The alignment of a sophisticated research assessment and simple classroom assessments shed light on initial failures, spurring revision. By refining the GenScope activities and extending the classroom assessments, we supported worthwhile whole-class discourse around the shared understanding of the software. A follow-up study in a laptop-equipped classroom yielded the absolute and relative gains (3.1 SD and 1.6 SD) that proponents of such innovations have long promised. In retrospect, the strengths and weakness of the study illustrate the value of newer "design-based" approaches to educational research. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This study-a comparison of change in an inner-city school and a Fortune 500 company-investigates how the work that we are asking our children to do in elementary school relates to the ways that work is changing in the information economy. The findings for this study are both striking in their simplicity and practical in their implications, showing that the traditional contradiction between socially progressive education and preparation for work is, at least in some areas, waning; that work done by many different specialists in the past is being put back together, allowing workers to do ``more of the whole job`` and leaving them feeling ``less like a robot.`` |
