Leadership, coupled with learning, is an ongoing process in which everyone has a participatory role in school or district change efforts. Providing a useful antidote to the plethora of packaged curriculum and external professional development providers, this book focuses on reclaiming agency, advocacy, and inquiry for leaders and teachers in the places they know best--their schools and districts. Doing so requires imagination, cooperation, and transparency. As such, the authors provide evidence from multiple school and district educators who are cultivating change from within by disrupting and dismantling systems and drawing on internal assets to address equity-driven challenges. As a result, educators can and should become researchers of their own practices. This resource offers a set of evidence-based principles, processes, and protocols that increase equitable access and support educators to breathe joy and justice into schools and communities.
Book Features:
Educational change reimagined as reinvesting in the collective power of the people closest to the issues.
Guidance based on evidence from multiple school and district change efforts documented and described by the authors.
Use of evidence to organize more productive informal and formal professional learning driven by practitioner agency and inquiry.
Text boxes called "Voices From the Field" provide stories of practices from practitioner-researchers.
Access to useful and equitable processes and protocols for the professional learning of educators.
Evidence from school and district leaders underscores the complex work of leading and learning from within, and how to do it.
