Contents:
Introduction: the complexity of professional learning in schooling improvement -- 1. Coherence and sustained focus -- 2. Creating a learning culture -- 3. Emotion, uncertainty and vulnerability -- 4. Evidence and evaluative thinking -- 5. Equity, bias, and beliefs -- 6. Extended examples -- 7. Bringing things together for impact.
Summary: "Today's school leaders are faced with the increasingly daunting task of leading their schools to improve, to innovate and to become ever more responsive to change. There are many resources to help schools to engage with improvement frameworks, but few that directly address the complexity of the challenges that inevitably arise along the way. Based on extensive research in the field, including the outcomes of a five-year project on school improvement and professional learning in Australia and New Zealand, Leading Professional Learning: Practical strategies for impact in schools identifies the challenges that school leaders face when leading professional learning and development in their schools as part of an improvement agenda."--Back cover.
