    Un escenario es un segmento del contexto externo que tiene una estructura: un medio físico y una pauta de conducta (o programa). A la relación que existe entre el medio y el programa se le denomina sinomorfia. Los autores proponen estudiar los entornos escolares como agrupamientos de sinomorfias. A veces medio y programa no están bien conformados entre sí y en este caso deberían cambiar hasta adoptar cierta similaridad. Cómo se produzca este cambio dependerá de la flexibilidad del medio y de las prioridades del programa. Se citan algunos ejemplos de ajustes del medio al programa y del programa al medio en algunas escuelas americanas.

    A setting is a segment of the external context with a structure: a physical environment and behavioural norms (or programme). The relation between environment and programme is called synomorph. The authors propose studying school environments as synomorphic groups. At times, an environment and programme are not in tune, in these cases they should evolve until they adopted certain similarity. How this change takes place will depend on the flexibility of the environment and the programme�s priorities. Some examples of adjusting the milieu to the programme and viceversa in American schools are reported.
