This book explores the new roles required of principals of dynamic schools. The first chapter examines the following forces that shape principals' activities: teachers are becoming teacher-leaders; parents are more vocal and action-oriented advocates; student bodies are more diverse; the social and technological contexts of schools are more complex; and state and federal reform mandates are setting priorities. Chapter 2 develops the image of a dynamic school as the place where "principals-in-charge" work and describes the characteristics that define this type of principal. The next three chapters examine new roles for principals-in-charge: those of facilitator, balancer, and flag bearer and bridger. Respectively, these chapters: discuss the professional relationships that principals-in-charge develop to facilitate teacher leadership in dynamic schools; discuss how the principal-in-charge negotiates within the system hierarchy, and develop cooperative relationships with their superiors; and show how the principal-in-charge takes on the role of entrepreneur for the school in the community. Chapter 6 and 7 offer new approaches to assessing and preparing the principal-in-charge, pointing out that dynamic schools are evaluation-minded schools and discussing ways of enabling principals to maintain their momentum of continuous growth. The role of the principal-in-charge as a leader of change is discussed in the final chapter. Each chapter introduces a scenario that depicts the principal-in-charge of a dynamic school, presents empirical data and supporting literature, and offers chapter highlights. The appendix describes the methods used in the Classroom Alternative Process (CAP) study, the Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) study, the case study for the Coalition of Essential Schools, and the High School and Beyond (USDE, 1984) data set.

This book presents a new integrated theory of dynamic management and leadership in one comprehensive approach. It offers a new way of looking at the field, drawing on a wide body of research and practice in the fields of leadership and management, across all sectors in education and more broadly. The book focuses on management against a backdrop of leadership theory. Including examples of practice and application in schools, colleges and universities, it uses a range of historical leadership approaches to scaffold different management techniques that are known to work in effective organisations. It explores the overlap between management and leadership as dynamic theoretical and practical activities, merging the two together into a holistic model that can be applied by managers working in educational settings. Its twenty-six chapters also consider the praxis of educational leadership and management from political, economic and ethical perspectives in relation to issues such as equity and widening participation, and outline how ‘managership’ impacts on student achievement. Offering a unique balance of theory and practice, across school, college and university sectors, the book will be of great interest to researchers, academics, graduate students and practitioners in the field of educational leadership and management, and will be important reading for all stakeholders in the area of educational effectiveness and improvement.

This inspiring book examines the emerging roles of teachers whose classrooms reflect a rapidly changing society. The authors describe the qualities teachers need in order to adapt and become more successful in the classroom. They must be content and pedagogical experts in creating constructivist classrooms; see themselves as professionals making a commitment to professional behaviors; facilitate conditions for student learning; challenge students' thinking through appropriate questioning strategies; extend the classroom into the community and bring the community into the classroom; and become a change agent, advocating for school reform within the school, in the community, and in the seats of government. All teachers are capable of expanding their skills in order to achieve these goals, the authors contend, regardless of community support, financial resources, or preparation and training. Using information gathered from careful studies of working teachers, they provide a portrait of an emerging "dynamic teacher", illustrating how these educators differ from their colleagues. They highlight the reasons why such differences are essential to the success of schooling in the future and offer concrete suggestions for how practicing teachers can begin their own journey to becoming a "dynamic teacher".

Leading for Learning Written by acclaimed school reform advocate Phillip C. Schlechty, Leading for Learning offers educators the framework, tools, and processes they need to transform their schools from bureaucracies into dynamic learning organizations. Schlechty explains how to move beyond some of the deeply ingrained and negative conceptions of schooling that guide so much of their practice. He shows educators how they can take advantage of new learning technologies by increasing their organization's capacity to support continuous innovation. "Clearly not for the fainthearted, Schlechty's engrossing appraisal of American education calls for a bold, truly fundamental transformation of how we run our public schools. Some books are thought-provoking; this one is action-provoking." W. JAMES POPHAM, professor emeritus, UCLA "Dr. Schlechty has once again written an insightful book that educational leaders can use as a road map in transforming our schools into learning organizations designed to serve twenty-first century students." DR. RANDY BRIDGES, superintendent, Alamance-Burlington School System, NC "Because education is ultimately a community responsibility, Schlechty's proposal to shift school systems from bureaucracies to learning organizations can open doors to citizens who are frustrated by the bureaucracy in their efforts to reclaim their role in education. This book is as much for them as it is for professional educators." DAVID MATHEWS, president, Kettering Foundation "Anyone in a school leadership position from the board room to the classroom should read this engaging and thought-provoking book. It's a must-read for all immersed in or contemplating the transformation of public education." CLAUDIA MANSFIELD SUTTON, chief communications and marketing officer, American Association of School Administrators

Through case studies, the authors show the reader how to develop, support, and improve a collaborative, inquiry-action process for improving teaching and learning.
