Instructional Leadership: Creating the Conditions #leadership20Chris Wejr
Presentation given on October 30, 2012 as part of the #Leadership20 learning series MOOC. Inquires about and describes successful strategies and ideas to create instructional leadership in schools.
This workshop deals with instructional leadership using the Sergiovanni model and looks at how the instructional leader can transform a school culture from a culture of teaching to a culture of learning using PLCs.
The Systems Centre: Learning and Leadership in the Graduate School of Education and the Faculty of Engineering, brings together educational, corporate and community leaders with researchers, to engage in inter-disciplinary research and development, drawing on systems thinking and complexity theory as tools for understanding and re-designing learning systems and the leadership they need.
The Systems Centre: Learning and Leadership is hosting a series of expert-led open seminars on these themes. The seminars will also provide a foretaste of our new MSc programme in Systems Learning and Leadership, which opens in October 2011 (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/education/students/masters/sll )
We are delighted that Howard Green, Director of Research and Development at Oasis Academies, formerly Special Adviser on Leadership at the Department of Education, and Visiting Fellow at the Graduate School of Education, will lead our first session entitled:
‘Rethinking Educational Leadership’
“Has the current paradigm for school leadership, with its focus on professional standards and competencies, taken us as far as it can with our efforts to transform schools? How can systems thinking and processes help us to find answers to some of the complex problems that remain unresolved and often block further progress in schools? The seminar will stimulate thinking and discussion about these questions and propose a refocusing of our approaches to school leadership development.”
The seminar took place at 5.00pm on Thursday 5th May at the Graduate School of Education.
Objective:
Identify the skills and characteristics of an instructional leader;
Apply the concepts and news about instructional leadership;
Analyse the roles and function of the principal as instructional leader;
Reflect on how the teacher can become an instructional leader; and Make a career plan

RE: Discussion 2 - Module 4
COLLAPSE
Top of Form
The presentations for this week’s discussion have influenced my perceptions of the common good. They have highlighted the importance of policy and practical wisdom and their fantastic effect on education. For example, in Bruno’s presentation, she discusses the importance of due process, which leads to others owning their decisions and making necessary changes that affect the greater good. Bruno also imparts her wisdom on the importance of documentation to support due process (National Association for the Education of Young Children, 2014). Schwartz outlines the importance of using practical wisdom. Practical wisdom is the moral will to do the right thing and the skill to know the right thing (TED Conferences, LLC, 2011). A wise person can be flexible when dealing with others and knows how to bend the rules for the greater good with the proper needs in mind. Practical wisdom requires the person to have a desire to do the right thing.
Schwartz uses the example of a teacher who listened to a consultant trying to help the school boost its test scores. The consultant’s advice was for educators not to waste their time on students who will pass the test, don’t waste time on students who won’t pass no matter what, and kids whose scores will not matter. This consultant’s idea is to focus on the bubble kids, the kids that will make a difference. The teacher was upset by this advice because she believed all students matter. Schwartz’s point is that rules are essential, but some rules will demoralize the practitioners and the practice. Rules and incentives create people who only work for the incentive.
Similarly, we, as educators, work to reach students through incentives. Students begin to work for the incentive rather than the desire to learn. Thankfully there is a way out of the rules and incentive system through people willing to be system changers. The system changers use courage not to leave the system but to work to change the system (TED Conferences, LLC, 2011).
Courage is needed to make system changes. We have policies and rules because we see the importance of having a standard of operation. However, not every situation fits the standard. Therefore, flexibility and practical wisdom matter. Fromberg presents the idea of high-stakes testing as sanctioned child abuse. She highlights the importance of play and risk-taking in the learning process. Unfortunately, administrators and teachers are placed in positions to use standardized tests and scripted lessons. However, there are system changers using courage to br.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

11. Things we know . . .
• Nothing matters more than effective teachers
• Principals are also key to causing data or fact-based school
success/improvement
• More than we will ever need to about what works in instruction
PRINCIPALS and
TEACHERS MATTER
12. Education research shows that most school
variables, considered separately, have at most
small effects on learning. The real payoff
comes when individual variables combine to
reach critical mass.
Creating the conditions
under which that can occur is the job of the
principal.

14. Effective school leadership is simply
creating the conditions
for change in which four things can
occur/exist:
1) Healthy Climate
2) Healthy Culture
3) Deep understanding of the interrelated
nature of CIA
4) Empowered teachers take ownership and
drive real instructional change

Watch your words, they become actions

community, a place full of adults and
youngsters who care about, look after, and
root for one another and who work
together for the good of the whole, in times
of need and times of celebration. Every
member of a community holds some
responsibility for the welfare of every
other and for the welfare of the
community as a whole.
Roland Barth

Introduction – Talk about who am I – a little about my experience
Good morning, my name is PJ Caposey – I always find the introductions of people at conferences or webinars a bit awkward as the presenter works to convince the audience that they are indeed qualified. I believe you are in good hands today – in most part because this is something that I personally worked through – failed at many times – reflected and re-worked – and was able to achieve a great deal of success for my school and those within my school. In four years as OHS principal we went from one of the lowest achieving schools in the county to be recognized as one of the best in the country --- through today you will learn a lot more about me and my philosophies as well as best practice strategies and methodologies for changing culture
