Abstract
There is a growing need for new outlooks on educational innovations. This need is fostered by the belief that traditional innovation strategies—and, in particular, large-scale innovation strategies—are not really suitable to deal with today's educational problems. The first part of this article describes reorientations related to education innovation policies. The second part examines some consequences of those reorientations, including the development of a transfor mational school policy that gives schools a greater opportunity to become strategic organizations. At the end of each section there is a comparison of policies in Western Europe with those in the United States.
