The Ideological-Historical Context of an Educational Metaphor.
Bowers, C. A.
Theory into Practice, v18 n5 p316-22 Dec 1979
Problems with the ideological framework of the idea of accountability are discussed in terms of how "technological consciousness" requires that all elements be considered as reducible to objective measurable performance criteria, and that nonmeasurables be considered as "not real." (JMF)
