Transformation are summaries of reports and studies about school transformation, with special attention to research on improving low-performing schools. Featured studies usually review two categories of research: (1) research based on scientific study and the analysis of quantitative and/or qualitative data, and (2) research findings that can improve practice and performance but that have not yet represented a consensus of findings across studies.
