Innovation in Education -- Germany. Technical Report.

This publication is one in a series of case studies dealing with educational innovation in various western European countries and the United States. This particular report discusses educational innovation in the Federal Republic of Germany. Rather than simply describing different educational reforms, the author uses selected examples of innovations to elucidate some of the essential prerequisites and characteristics of the current reform movement in Germany. However, much of the report is devoted to examining different types of educational innovations and describing specific innovations that the author feels are of major importance. (JG)
