Ferrucci); (3) "What Supports Teachers As They Change Their Practice?" (Patricia P. Tinto and Joanna O. Masingila); (4) "What Leadership Models Are Successful in Reform Efforts?" (Joanna O. Masingila and Patricia P. Tinto); (5) "What Is the Role of Parents and Community Members?" (Karen Graham and Loren Johnson); (6) "What Roles Does Assessment Play in Mathematics Education Reform?" (Diana V. Lambdin); (7) "How Can We Strive for Equity and Excellence?" (Loren Johnson); (8) "Why Is Change So Hard?" (Laura Coffin Koch); and (9) "What Have We Learned for the Future?"
