participation, on the quality of work done and on the amount of work
actually completed by students, the teachers were able to modify their
own practices. They also came to understand how students could take
responsibility for their learning and succeed in their own terms. Their
classroom situation was dramatically different from the one these
teachers established in their early work with this ‘alternative’ group.
The strategy was sufficiently successful that they began to implement
it in other classes with some success, and there was a suggestion that
the process might be employed more widely in the school. Despite the
strong argument they mounted for changing the school’s assessment
policy on the basis of the evidence they collected, however, other
teachers who had not been involved in the action research process
remained unconvinced, and the general assessment policy was not
changed. The situation did not change as radically as the teachers
involved had hoped, but they learned something about the change
process itself: that they needed to involve others in the learning process
they had gone through, and to involve them early.
