9612906 Hunter Vanguard will create and evaluate a model process for systemic reform and ongoing innovation within a large school system. The essential elements of the Vanguard model are as follows: * An entire K-12 school community builds its capacity to serve as a testbed for innovation for the overall school system. * A structure and culture become institutionalized in the testbed school community that encourages voluntary groups of teachers and others to initiate, investigate, plan, implement, and evaluate innovative practices that take into account new standards of student performances, as well as new opportunities offered through technologies. * Computer-based technology, LAN/WAN Internet access, and electronic resources are ubiquitous across the school community and the members of the community are fluent in the use of such resources. * The processes of building local capacity (e.g. professional development) are carried out in a manner that operationalizes and tests emerging policy initiatives of the school system leadership. * Linking across the curriculum, linking across the community, and linking across the entire school system, are leveraged strategies for creating new environments for learning and teaching in the modern age. * The linkages between the testbed school community and the rest of the system (e.g. in teacher-led professional development forums or student work groups across schools) - made possible through the technology infrastructure and applications-promote rapid diffusion of the innovations across the system. * Innovations in curriculum, instruction, collaboration, assessment, and school restructuring are evaluated using a wide range of assessments of student learning as well as costs, possible cost-displacements, and scalability across the system . * The processes by which the school system supports and learns from the testbed schools become institutionalized across all levels of the school system, thereby creating a school system in whic h innovation is a way of life rather than an occasional add-on activity. Vanguard builds upon past and current research on educational reform and technology. The success of Vanguard could have a significant impact on our understanding of how school systems can make the transition from the industrial age to a knowledge-based society. ***

9612906猎人先锋将创建和评估一个大型学校系统内的系统性改革和持续创新的示范过程。先锋模式的基本要素如下：* 整个K-12学校社区建立其能力，作为整个学校系统创新的试验台。* 一种结构和文化成为制度化的试验台学校社区，鼓励教师和其他志愿团体发起，调查，计划，实施和评估创新的做法，考虑到学生表现的新标准，以及通过技术提供的新机会。* 基于计算机的技术，LAN/WAN互联网接入和电子资源在整个学校社区无处不在，社区成员可以流利地使用这些资源。* 地方能力建设（如专业发展）的开展方式是落实和检验学校系统领导层的新政策举措。* 跨课程的联系，跨社区的联系，以及跨整个学校系统的联系，是在现代创造新的学习和教学环境的杠杆战略。* 试验学校社区与系统其他部分之间的联系（例如，在教师领导的专业发展论坛或跨学校的学生工作组中）-通过技术基础设施和应用程序成为可能-促进了整个系统的创新的快速传播。* 课程，教学，协作，评估和学校重组的创新进行了评估，使用广泛的学生学习以及成本，可能的成本位移，并在整个系统的可扩展性的评估。* 学校系统支持试验学校和向试验学校学习的过程在学校系统的各个层面都成为制度化的过程，从而创造了一个将创新作为一种生活方式而不是偶尔的附加活动的学校系统。先锋建立在过去和现在的研究教育改革和技术。先锋的成功可能会对我们理解学校系统如何从工业时代过渡到知识社会产生重大影响。***
