Much of the student-staff partnership literature calls for increased collaboration and power sharing among staff and students. Less common are accounts by student partners themselves that take up the challenge of what partnership and power feel like as universities embrace their neoliberal trajectory - and - purport to do so on behalf of students…

We undertook a systematic review of whole-school interventions to prevent substance use and violence. This paper reports on a…

Morton, Crystal – Equity Assistance Center Region III, Midwest and Plains Equity Assistance Center, 2017
When schools engage parents and caregivers as authentic partners in children's learning they begin to break down traditional barriers that have existed between home and school.

Ziegler, William T.; Ramage, David E. – Principal Leadership, 2012

Bauer, Scott C. – Executive Educator, 1992
Fear frequently underlies confusion about shared decision making. Participative decision makers do agree on three basics: focus on improving school effectiveness by involving teachers and parents; need for school teams or councils charged with decision-making authority over certain issues; and a process to improve overall decision-making quality…

Bers, Trudy H.; Sullivan, Terrence J. – Planning for Higher Education, 1985
Planetary leadership (wanderers who seem to meander through their organizations making institutions work and change) can be a critical component of institutional change. Literature about management and organizational change is reviewed, and a case study of a major academic change at a public, suburban community college is discussed. (MLW)

Common, Dianne L. – Theory into Practice, 1983

Blanke, Virgil E. – Viewpoints in Teaching and Learning, 1982
H. S. Bhola's models of planned change can contribute to the understanding of change processes and clarify the role of power in change. They do not, however, deal with problems such as resource dependency, which educational administrators face. Attitudes may interfere with acceptance of the models. (PP)
