Data-Driven Leadership

by Amanda Datnow e Vicki Park

31,80€ + 10% CARD

 Tools and techniques from the trailblazers in data-based education reform Over a period of several years, Amanda Datnow and Vicki Park visited public schools with a reputation for being ahead of the pack in data-driven decision making. The results of this pioneering study reveal how education leaders can make data work for students and teachers, rather than against them. This book is an essential guide to meeting the challenges of high-stakes accountability, building performance-based schools, and improving student outcomes. By following the advice in this book, you ll be able to transform data overload into a data-positive school culture. You ll learn the difference between data-driven leadership and data-informed leadership, and how to use distributed leadership to inspire collaboration and guided analysis. Incorporating narrative reflections drawn from real educators and administrators, the authors refine their observations and interviews into practical conclusions that leaders can put to use immediately. This book empowers leaders to support inquiry, build trust in data-based initiatives, establish goals for evidence use, and provide educators with the skills they need to mobilize data for the good of all stakeholders. Datnow and Park s ideas are easily accessible and grounded in clear examples, and their seven calls about what needs to be done nail the problem and the solutions. Use this book as your action guide and you ll be rewarded with better results in student learning. Michael Fullan, professor emeritus, University of Toronto Datnow and Park uncover, at last, what it means to use data to inform leadership. Documenting the four P s (people, policies, practices, and patterns) in schools, we learn about the organization and dynamics of reform informed by data. A must read! Ann Lieberman, senior scholar, Stanford University

Teacher Leadership

by Ann Lieberman e Lynne Miller

29,14€ + 10% CARD

 In Teacher Leadership, Lieberman and Miller discuss current changes in the teacher's role, and make sense of the research on teacher leadership. They offer case studies of innovative programs - such as the National Writing Project - that provide teachers with opportunities to lead within a professional community. In addition, they tell stories of individual teachers - from Maine to California - who are able to lead in a variety of contexts. Teacher Leadership offers a new standard of teaching and community that recognizes all teachers as leaders. It shows how to develop learning communities that include rather than exclude, create knowledge rather than merely apply it, and that offer challenge and support to both new and experienced teachers. This book is a volume in the Jossey-Bass Leadership Library in Education - a series designed to meet the demand for new ideas and insights about leadership in schools.
