Download or read book Beyond the Campus written by Debra Harkins and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how we approached the issue of community development in the context of competing interests and a differential power imbalance. We used a process-based model for supporting community transformation, a phenomenon in which university–community partnership is but one example. The people who most will want to read and use Beyond the Campus are faculty (e.g., executive coaches and consultants), staff, and action-focused researchers seeking to learn how to enhance their relationships with community leaders (e.g., principals, executive/program directors, teachers and parents) in urban educational settings.
