Download or read book Distributed Leadership written by Alma Harris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alma Harris The ?eld of school leadership is currently preoccupied with the idea of distributed leadership. Few ideas, it seems, have provoked as much attention, debate and c- troversy. Whatever your position on distributed leadership, and you cannot fail to have one, it is irrefutable that distributed leadership has become the leadership idea of the moment. Yet, it is an idea that can be traced back as far as the mid 20s and possibly earlier. So why the interest? Part of the answer can be found in a move away from theorizing and empirical enquiry focused on the single leader. This shift has undoubtedly been fuelled by structural changes, within schools and across school systems that have resulted in - ternative models or forms of leadership practice. Evidence highlights how those - cupying formal leadership positions are increasingly recognizing the limitations of existing structural arrangements to secure organizational growth and transformation (Fullan et al. , 2007; Harris et al. , 2008; Chapman et al. , 2008). As a consequence, many heads and principals are actively restructuring, realigning and redesigning leadership practice in their school (Harris, 2008). While the terminology to describe such changes varies, the core principle is one of extending or sharing leadership practice. While scholars have long argued for the need to move beyond those at the top of organizations in order to examine leadership (Barnard, 1968; Katz and Kahn, 1966) until relatively recently, much of the school leadership literature has tended tofocusupontheheadortheprincipal.

Download or read book Direcci n y liderazgo de los centros educativos written by Joaquín Gairín Sallán and published by Narcea Ediciones. This book was released on 2024-05-08 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El consenso amplio que se da a nivel internacional sobre la importancia de la dirección en el rendimiento de los alumnos y en la mejora escolar es, actualmente, algo incontestable y avalado por diferentes estudios. No obstante, el debate sobre el modelo de dirección deseable en contextos educativos determinados y sus relaciones con el liderazgo que le debe acompañar son aún temas pendientes de decisiones políticas y profesionales sin resolver. El presente texto organiza y presenta los avances que sobre el tema se han ido desarrollando hasta llegar a modelos de dirección distribuida con líderes transformadores, centrados en los procesos de aprendizaje, y capaces de promover centros educativos más eficientes, inclusivos, seguros, saludades, sostenibles, y personal y socialmente útiles. A la reflexión y análisis sobre la naturaleza y sentido de la función directiva y del liderazgo que le debe acompañar, se añaden varios capítulos que tratan del desarrollo profesional de estos responsables, revisando aspectos de la formación inicial y permanente, de las transiciones que les afectan y de su trabajo en red. También se consideran aspectos diferenciales como puedan ser los específicos de la práctica directiva en entornos vulnerables, en centros de formación profesional y en contextos rurales. La obra, dirigida especialmente a directivos, estudiosos e investigadores, asesores, profesorado y responsables de los sistemas educativos, busca así difundir el conocimiento existente, proporcionando los marcos teóricos y prácticos que pueden apoyar su intervención en los centros educativos. Pero, más allá de la formalización y desarrollo realizados, lo interesante de esta aportación radica en los dos mensajes que transmite. A nivel implícito, la reivindicación sobre la necesidad de mantener e impulsar modelos de estudio sobre los directivos líderes que superen el mero análisis estructural y avancen en la descripción y conocimiento de las complejas dinámicas humanas sobre las que actúan. A nivel explícito, nos ayuda a conocer fortalezas y debilidades de las propuestas que, relacionadas con la función directiva y el liderazgo, existen, aportando nuevas visiones y formas de entender y analizar su actividad.

It looks critically and controversially at the social, economic, cultural and political forces that are driving educational change.

Download or read book Advocacy Leadership written by Gary L. Anderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this timely and important new book, Gary Anderson provides a devastating critique of why a managerial role for educational leaders is counterproductive, especially for improving opportunities for low-income students and students of color, and instead proposes ways of re-theorizing educational leadership to emphasize its advocacy role. Advocacy Leadership lays out a post-reform agenda that moves beyond the neo-liberal, competition framework to define a new accountability, a new pedagogy, and a new leadership role definition. Drawing on personal narrative, discourse analysis, and interdisciplinary scholarship, Anderson delivers a compelling argument for the need to move away from current inauthentic and inequitable approaches to school reform in order to jump-start a conversation about an alternative vision of education today.
