Building a Culture of Commitment in an Age of ComplianceRobert Mackey
The focus of this presentation is to help leaders better understand the role they play in creating strong, collaborative cultures in an era of burdensome governmental and bureaucratic oversight. A culture that can stay focused on the mission and vision of a school district and keep learning at high levels as the number one priority.
The document discusses distributed leadership, including what it is, why it is important, and how it can be implemented in schools. Some key points:
1) Distributed leadership involves sharing and extending leadership across an organization, not just from the top leader. It encourages collaboration and developing a shared vision.
2) When leadership is distributed properly through teams and engaging others' expertise, it can positively impact student outcomes and teacher effectiveness.
3) Distributed leadership takes different forms in different schools depending on needs and context, but successful implementations develop leadership at all levels through structures, roles, and collaborative ways of working.
This document summarizes a presentation on best practices for implementing differentiated instruction through responsive teaching and sustainable professional development. Some key points:
- Differentiation is a process that requires long-term commitment to become integral to a school/district's culture. Leaders must implement principles of differentiation in a way that meaningfully impacts all students.
- Successful change depends on building relationships and involving teachers as leaders. It also requires both pressure and support over an extended period of time while beliefs and practices evolve.
- The presenters outline a framework for differentiation initiatives, including defining common language, aligning to missions, identifying leaders, and addressing potential barriers/enablers.
- Advice includes focusing on collaboration, celebrating
Distributed leadership in secondary schoolsJaminur Rahman
Distributed leadership focuses on engaging all team members in leadership roles within a school, not just the head teacher. This paper discusses the possibilities and impediments of implementing distributed leadership in secondary schools in Bangladesh. The education system in Bangladesh is facing challenges that distributed leadership may help address, such as improving teaching quality. However, distributed leadership remains unclear in concept and its practice in developing countries is seldom discussed. For distributed leadership to work in Bangladesh, training programs for head teachers need to focus on long-term positive change.
This document presents a Change Leadership Framework to guide organizations through intentional change. The framework includes four components: Intentionality, Capacity, Implementation, and Productivity revolving around Execution. It applies the framework to the role of State Education Agencies in catalyzing and leading change in districts and schools. The framework can help SEAs choose innovations wisely, build capacity for change, and implement and measure productivity through the engagement of people.

This document discusses defining legal leadership. It begins by noting that leadership involves envisioning goals and inspiring others to achieve them, but more specific behaviors are needed. Two models of leadership competencies and behaviors are described - the Birkman Behaviors model and the MRG Leadership Effectiveness model. Both models involve creating a vision, implementing plans, achieving results, and building teams. Choosing a model can help leaders develop themselves by identifying which competencies to improve.

Leadership: It's Not Just a Challenge, It's an Adventure by Dr. James D. Laub
NATIONAL FORUM OF EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND SUPERVISION JOURNAL, Editor-in-Chief, Dr. William Allan Kritsonis
1) While the concept of teacher leadership has been discussed in academic literature for decades, it remains more of a theoretical concept than a reality in most schools, where teachers see themselves only as followers of the principal.
2) For schools to improve, both principal leadership and teacher leadership are important, as they have reciprocal roles in building a collaborative culture. However, the prevailing model still views the principal as the sole leader and teachers as passive recipients rather than leaders.
3) For teacher leadership to be realized, teachers must recognize and develop confidence in their own leadership potential, see themselves not just as teachers but as leaders within the school, and be willing to collaborate with colleagues to address needs and problems from within the teaching ranks.
A complex process approach to organisational changePhilwood
This document provides an overview of a complex process approach to organizational change, particularly in educational institutions. It discusses how traditional managerialist approaches to change oversimplify organizational complexity. A complex process approach recognizes that organizations are complex systems consisting of interacting parts. Change involves different processes like adaptation, fine-tuning, new directions, and transformation. It also acknowledges that change occurs through both planned and emergent processes. The document advocates for building organizational capacity for change through principles like diversity, decentralized control, enabling constraints, and professionalism rather than technical compliance.
The document discusses the leadership role of school librarians. It states that school librarians must constantly update their skills in order to collaborate effectively with teachers and staff. They must create an environment where collaboration and problem solving thrive. Studies show that when school librarians take on leadership roles and partner with administrators, it leads to stronger library programs and increased academic achievement for students.
This document discusses the evolution of instructional leadership as a concept in school administration over the past 30 years. It began as a focus on the principal's role based on research in the 1980s, but faced criticism and was later eclipsed by ideas of transformational and teacher leadership. However, increased accountability has led to a renewed global interest in instructional leadership, now termed "leadership for learning." The document reviews research on defining characteristics and effects of instructional leadership, and how the concept has developed into a paradigm for 21st century school administration.
This document discusses distributive and empowering leadership. It provides an overview of the concepts and research supporting these approaches to leadership. Distributive leadership involves sharing leadership with others through collaboration and empowerment. Research shows that team-oriented, collaborative leadership is linked to improved teaching and learning. However, shared leadership only indirectly impacts student achievement by helping teachers engage in professional learning communities and collective responsibility. The document outlines ways to distribute power, such as finding and empowering teacher leaders, and creating professional learning communities. It addresses barriers to teacher leadership and provides tools to identify potential teacher leaders.
The document discusses distributed leadership, which proposes that leadership is not the role of individual leaders but is shared across an organization. It involves multiple individuals influencing and supporting one another towards a common goal of improvement and innovation. Effective distributed leadership requires developing trust among staff, empowering teachers as leaders, and establishing structures that promote collaboration instead of dependence on a single leader.

A Preferred Vision For Administering Elementary Schools A Reflective EssayTye Rausch
This document discusses the author's preferred vision for administering an elementary school. It focuses on two main roles: the role with children and the role with teachers. For the role with children, the author believes the administrator impacts curriculum and teaching methods. They also act as a model for appropriate behavior. For the role with teachers, the author emphasizes building relationships, learning together through evaluation and professional development, and recognizing teacher talents to create a supportive learning culture. The overall vision is of an administrator who facilitates student learning through collaborative leadership.
Education and the essence of learning have shaped human beings and the society to where they stand today.
Had it not been for education, chances are we would still be living under the rocks.
This document summarizes a presentation on leading and leveraging change to create an inclusive school culture. It discusses two research projects conducted in Australia, Canada, and Colombia that examined leadership characteristics for inclusive schools. Key findings included the importance of strong, visionary principal leadership focused on inclusion, developing shared and distributed leadership among staff, and establishing school-wide pedagogical practices and flexible curricula to meet diverse student needs. Principals in all contexts played a vital role in nurturing inclusive cultures and ensuring that all students feel supported.
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.
Sf Id Tot Protecting Children By Strengthening Familiesk.stepleton
The document discusses Idaho's Strengthening Families trainings, which aim to prevent child abuse and neglect and improve child care quality. The trainings are delivered over 17 hours in 8 modules and use an experiential learning model. Participants and trainers report that the research-based, well-designed trainings are effective in changing behaviors and strengthening relationships between child care providers, parents, and children. The trainings have led to positive outcomes such as improved communication, identification of at-risk families, and connections to support services.
This document discusses leadership and creating a culture where people and programs improve. It emphasizes the importance of teacher collaboration, developing professional learning communities, setting high expectations, and focusing on improving instructional practice. Key aspects that help cultures improve include collegiality, efficacy, experimentation, trust, support, and shared decision-making.
The key roles of teacher leaders are to increase the knowledge of other teachers about student learning and quality teaching practices. Their main task is to lead teachers within their school. They can do this by participating in professional development organizations, helping make school decisions, defining teaching standards, mentoring new teachers, improving facilities, working with parents and the community, and becoming politically involved to advocate for education. Effective preparation for leadership includes allowing leaders to showcase their talents, managing people not just their work, permitting failures to teach resilience, and continuously learning.

https://latte-analytics.sydney.edu.au/school/ for updates.
Date: Monday 5 March, 2018
Time: 8.30am—3.15pm
Venue: SMC Conference & Function Centre, 66 Goulburn Street, Sydney NSW 2000
In association with the 8th International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge, Society for Learning Analytics Research
Briefing papers: https://latte-analytics.sydney.edu.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/k12_papers-1.pdf
You are warmly invited to join this inaugural event!
The data and analytics revolutions are disrupting and already transforming many sectors in society: finance, health, shopping, politics. Data is not new to education, but for many, it is still challenging to articulate the connection between the potential of using data to support decision making, and the every day-to-day operations occurring in learning environments.
School leaders, teachers, data analysts, academics, policy makers and all other interested parties are invited to join a professional learning and development day focused on the practical applications of Learning Analytics in school (K-12) education.
Drawing on national and international expertise, speakers include innovative school leaders and teachers, school data analysts, university researchers, government and software companies. Whether you already know a bit about Learning Analytics, are brand new to it, or already use it in the classroom, there will be insightful sessions with pertinent applications for all levels of knowledge and understanding.
You will leave with a deeper understanding of:
The diverse forms that Learning Analytics can take, and especially how technology extends this far beyond conventional school data to create better feedback
How such data is being used by school leaders to support strategic reflection
How new kinds of data are being used by teachers to support their practice
The practicalities of initiating such work in your own school
This is the first event of its kind in Australia, and a new initiative for the international LAK conference, so you will make many professional connections as we forge this new network.
This document appears to be a syllabus for an educational leadership course titled EDAD 516 at Washington State University's Puyallup campus in the fall semester of 2014. It lists the instructor as Ailene M. Baxter, the Director of Human Resources for the Puyallup School District.

Getting S.M.A.R.T. with Data PresentationCourtney Huff
The document outlines an agenda for a School Leadership Teams Workshop focusing on creating a culture of quality data through professional development, data mining tools, and establishing collaborative teams. The workshop covers introducing data systems, assessing the current culture and use of data, and roles and responsibilities for building a culture where decisions are based on analysis of common formative assessments.
The one-day conference brought together over 300 school leaders from across the North West of England to discuss the developing school-led system.
Key topics included expanding system leadership capacity as many current leaders approach retirement. Specialist leaders are providing school-to-school support but more are still needed. Teaching school alliances aim to lead on initial teacher training, professional development, and school improvement, but challenges remain around deployment of support and collaboration between schools. School governance is evolving from committees to a more strategic model with a focus on data and accountability. Overall the conference shared progress in the school-led system and continuing work to build capacity and commitment across the region.
This reflection summarizes the student's personal and professional growth over the course of the educational leadership program. The student found that they became not only a better principal candidate but also a stronger teacher. The religious elements of the program helped the student develop more compassion and understanding as a future leader. The student saw differences in Christian and non-Christian leaders and aims to treat staff with respect, kindness, patience and fairness as a reflection of Christian ideals. The program emphasized considering personal challenges staff may face outside of work.
B12 - Keith Posthlethwaite (Exeter) and Linda Haggarty (Open): From student t...Mike Blamires
This document summarizes key findings from a study examining the learning of beginning teachers during initial teacher education (ITE) and induction. During ITE, student teachers' learning was most influenced by their own characteristics and fitting in with the current school context. Newly qualified teachers faced behaviour management concerns that influenced their pedagogical decisions and limited aspirations. Induction focused on emotional support and fitting in, with limited discussion of teaching approaches. Involvement in a "learning school" allowed one teacher to further develop pupils' learning skills through collaboration.
Here are some examples of shared inquiry questions for the different types:
Interpretive question: What message is the author trying to convey about the importance of using evidence to support arguments?
Factual question: According to the passage, what are the three types of questions used in shared inquiry discussions?
Evaluative question: How effective do you think interpretive questions are for encouraging discussion and different perspectives compared to factual questions? Why?

The syllabus outlines the essential information students need about the course, including the educational frameworks and theories that will be examined related to leadership, adult learning, and culturally responsive
The document discusses shifting the ownership of learning to students to develop learner agency. It identifies ten conditions for learner agency, including having learners at the center of their learning, building relationships and partnerships, developing cultural responsiveness, empowering leadership, viewing teaching as inquiry, ensuring curriculum and pedagogy support agency, using assessment for and of learning, integrating technology, and creating innovative learning environments. The document encourages reflecting on which conditions to act on and provides resources to develop strategies that give students more control and ownership over their learning.
Similar to Leading, learning and aligning keys to sustaining school improvement (20)
The document discusses how metaphors can be used effectively in education to reflect views on learning and teaching, with some examples provided of metaphors used by teachers to describe their role. It also explores how schools have developed metaphorical visions and frameworks to guide pedagogy and create connections across the school community. Developing a shared metaphorical approach can strengthen a school's culture and approach to teaching and learning.
Schoolwide Pedagogical Principles assist with the alignment of purpose and practice across whole school learning and teaching communities. This presentation shares the work of the Leadership Research International team and its IDEAS process working with schools to create shared commitment to school vision, values and a schoolwide pedagogy.
Inclusive Schools presentation for Congress on InclusionLindy-Anne Abawi
This document describes research conducted from 2012-2014 on inclusive schoolwide practices at a primary school. It summarizes:
- Increasing numbers of students with special needs attending the school and data showing improved academic performance.
- Research methodology involving interviews and observations of staff, students, and parents to understand the school's inclusive culture.
- Key elements of the school's approach including "wrapping with support", developing student independence, explicit social skills teaching, and flexible structures.
- Leadership providing spaces for sharing best practices and individual feedback to continually improve inclusion.
- The school's "language of inclusion" and commitment to welcoming all students "from the gate in".
Ideas and meaning making in schools through schoolwide pedagogyLindy-Anne Abawi
Shared understandings of pedagogical intent are essential in schools if students are to feel supported and confident when moving from class to class and year level to year level. The creation of a schoolwide pedagogical framework (SWP) enables aligned practice and processes to be sustainable over time. Shared commitment to an SWP creates a school specific meaning system designed to address context specific need.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.

Autono-Collaboration (AC) is a term that was
created by Cheryl Bauman (2014).
It is defined as the motivation of an individual
being able to act with choice, thus being
autonomous, and the individual is also agreeably
motivated to be collaborative with others.

Autono-Collaboration:
Effective teacher leaders combine both autonomy and
collaboration in their work settings.
The relationship between autonomy and collaboration is
dynamic and circular in nature.
Collaborative roles actually enriched the autonomous
practice in the classroom that engage students
academically, socially and emotionally.
Both the elementary teachers and the principals were the
collective forces that autonomously and collaboratively led
meaningful, long-term changes through sustainability in
their leadership practices.

Schoolwide Pedagogy (SWP) is a school’s expression of its
priority teaching, learning and assessment principles.
An SWP....represents teachers’ agreement regarding pre-
eminent teaching, learning and assessment processes for their
school; reflects the school vision and extends it into the life of
classrooms; and provides a vehicle to enable teachers to
develop heightened connectivity in the learning experiences of
students across year levels and subjects. (Crowther, Andrews

SWP helps teacher professionals within professional learning communities when:
– Selecting teaching strategies
– Choosing resources
– Identifying and accessing support
– Aligning behaviour management practices across a school
– Interacting with the community
– Determining PD needs
– Prioritising demands and imperatives
– Identifying organisational ways of working and creating or implementing
policies ….
All these and more are underpinned by a framework for making meaning of a
school’s core business within each unique context and results in
shared understandings. (Abawi, 2013)

3-D.P and Neopedagogy
We conceptualise the work of the 21st
century professional teacher as
‘three-dimensional’ encompassing the integration of personal pedagogy
(PP), schoolwide pedagogy (SWP) and authoritative pedagogy (AP).
3-D.P represents a neopedagogical world of teacher professionalism –
where teaching enhances the lives of children through the creation
of new knowledge, the assertion of sustainable values, and the
development of futures-orientated capabilities. Neopedagogy
derives from the power of teachers’ collective engagement in
processes of holistic school development and the realisation in
their workplaces of their talents and gifts as individual
professionals. (Andrews & Crowther, 2006)

Micro (depth) –Pedagogical (Teaching and Learning) Deepening (rich
meaning and significance in teachers work) happens in schools when
teachers engage in three forms of pedagogical inquiry and
application:
1. Personal reflection on and nurturing their gifts and talents in
relation to their teaching
2. Conceptual development of the school’s pedagogical principles
3. Streamlining of individual and schoolwide strategies for
teaching, learning, and assessment to accommodate students’
needs as 21st century learners.
