The book addresses several major questions in  this new environment. Those questions include: how to combat  educational disadvantages, how to integrate pupils with special  educational needs in regular education, how to implement educational  standards initiatives, how to restructure secondary education, how to  implement decentralized policy-making, and how to implement a class  size reduction initiative? Finally, the authors suggest directions for  future research in order to increase our understanding of what works  in education and why.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789401058445\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-4253-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 259\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47401279881356,"sku":"9789401058445","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789401058445.jpg?v=1775793533","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789401058445","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
