Public demands for improvement and
accountability are being directed at every person involved in
education--administrators, teachers, parents, community members. and the
students themselves. This book is specially designed to "feed and nurture
the busy and dedicated people who are striving valiantly to meet these
demands--especially education leaders who want to create high-performing
learning communities in their schools. This kind of community draws on
individual strengths to brim about continuous improvement. Included here are
practical tools, activities, and resources that you can put to work right
away. Stories, reflections, and discussions of theory provide inspiration as
well as food for thought and dialogue.
As you listen to teachers, principals, parents, and students speak honestly about what has worked (or not worked) in their schools, you will gain new perspectives on the importance of the learning culture in your school and the broader learning community in which schools operate. You will reconsider the roles of leadership, shared goals, and assessment. You will learn what it means to become, as well as to help create, a SMART learner (one who is Successful, Motivated, Autonomous, Responsible, and thoughtful). By uniting the worlds of education research and practice, Inside School Improvement invites you to unleash the best and brightest inside yourself and inside your school. |
