Résumé
We report on a study investigating how the notions of large-scale and small-scale projects are interpreted. Some of the methodological procedures of the Delphi technique were used, including posing a couple of scale-related questions to a group of 14 educational researchers who had experience in leading or investigating the large-scale implementation of educational innovations or reforms. The experts’ responses were analyzed using Coburn’s (2003) conceptualization of scale. The results show that these notions are generally interpreted from a perspective emphasizing quantitative aspects such as the number of teachers, schools, or districts reached by an implemented innovation or reform.
