“…Not surprisingly, most of the reported collaboration has occurred between two professions (e.g., Biaggio & Bittner, 1990;Reppucci & Crosby, 1993;Staley , 199 1;Thiel & Robinson, 1997;Weil, 1982) in situations where one profession (e.g., social work) worked in a setting (e.g., hospital) that was dominated by another profession (e.g., medicine; Abramson & Mizrahi, 1996;Allen-Meares & Moroz, 1989;Tharinger et al, 1996). Examination of the literature in several fields (psychology, education, social work, law, and health care) reveals only modest evidence of collaborative work.…”

“…ABD'de özellikle son 50 yıl içinde, ulusal düzeyde uygulanan eğitim programlarını etkileyen bu reformlar temelde eğitime yaklaşımı olduğu kadar, eğitim sektörü içinde bulunan yönetici, eğitmen, karar alıcı ve diğer ilgili disiplinlerin de, yöntem ve rol değişimine uğramasına neden olmuştur. Bunlardan 1983'de yayınlanan 'Risk Altında Bir Ulus: Eğitim Reformu Düzenlemesi' ("A Nation at Risk: The Imperative for Education Reform") 1 ile ilk kez ulusal boyutta ve resmi kabul görmüş olan 'Hedef 2000: Amerika'yı Eğit' ["Goals 2000: Educate America Act" (1994)] 2 ilk reform uygulamaları arasında yer alır (Tharinger et al, 1996). Bu reformlara bakıldığında, üç tip yaklaşım görülmektedir.…”

“…Particularly important have been the passage of Goals 2000: Educate America Act of 1994 and the reauthorization of ESEA under the title, Improving America's Schools Act of 1994. The mandate for Goals 2000 incorporates the four points enumerated by President Clinton and includes four others, among them the aim of increasing parental involvement "in promoting the social, emotional and academic growth of children" (Tharinger et a/., 1996). The reauthorization of ESEA, in particular, adds flexibility of approach in providing poor students with services, promotes greater involvement of parents through training opportunities and participation in program design, and requires that parents be informed of changes to the law.…”
