		For many of the Bank Street faculty, curricular reform was not originally a matter of changing their teaching practice but rather of including a wider set of perspectives in their courses, particularly an emphasis on inclusion, diversity and the use of the arts.
		Bank Street’s educational philosophy is based on a notion of students constructing their own knowledge through carefully scaffolded learning opportunities.
		Bank Street wanted to create courses that were grounded in practice and the realities of public school life, and teachers were critical in achieving this objective.

	Education Program Area -- Spotlight: Bank Street Study on Small Schools (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Reconfiguring large urban schools into smaller schools is having a positive impact on student performance, school climate, professional collegiality, and parent satisfaction, according to a new study released by Bank Street College of Education.
		Small Schools: Great Strides, relying on the largest database assembled to date on small schools, suggests that even though smallness by itself is not the cure to all that ails urban schools, integrating small schools into a comprehensive reform strategy can help improve student outcomes.
		The authors recommend that policymakers provide the funds necessary to reduce the size of the country’s largest schools and take whatever steps are necessary to "reduce the bureaucratic constraints that prevent educators from creating smaller schools that are responsive to local student and family needs."

	Research Synthesis on Early Intervention Practices
		In the early 1980's many educators of young children were familiar with home personal computers but had difficulty generalizing the use of computers into their classroom curricula.
		In addition to concerns regarding the value of using computers, early childhood educators were actually concerned about the harm using these "cold machines" might have on the social and emotional development of young children (Clements and Nastasi, 1993).
		Perhaps computers continue to be used as an end instead of a means to an end because educators have not yet heeded advice in 1987, educators must determine goals and expectations for computer use realistic and relative to the curriculum (Anselmo and Zinck, 1987; Buckleitner and Zinck, 1987; Donohue, Borgh, and Dickson, 1987).
