| Abstract | The frequent claim that programs have failed and that the schools themselves have failed are largely based on one measure of success: achievement scores. This paper raises the question of whether or not alternative criteria of success might not be more appropriate. Gains in learning and the extent to which school learning is transferred to situations outside the school are discussed as alternatives. For example, two children with quite different achievement scores might make equal use of school learning in non-school situations. By the first, (traditional) criteria one child is more successful than the other while by the second criterion (transfer) both children have profited to the same extent from their school experience. The discussion suggests the possibility that sub-populations that are less successful in the schools may be victims of inappropriate criteria of success. We need to develop effective measures of the extent to which people make use of (transfer) what they learn in school as well as measures of gains in learning. (Author/MLP) |
