Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Schools need more leadership than administrators alone can provide. Cultivate and Activate shows how to close four critical gaps that inhibit teacher leadership--authority, information, opportunity, and culture--giving teachers real ownership, a seat at the decision-making table, recognition for their contributions, and clear pathways for professional growth. These strategies strengthen collaboration, improve decision making, and build organizational capacity. Readers will: - Visualize the 'missing middle' of teacher leadership as a core part of school operations and a legitimate form of instructional leadership - Understand why information is a critical resource for decision making and learn how to engage those closest to the work to improve speed, quality, and ownership - Create meaningful opportunities for teacher professional growth and career advancement without leaving the classroom - Identify ways to honor and recognize teacher leaders--including titles, job descriptions, and compensation--even without extra funding - Learn best practices for recurring meetings, communication, and decision making that promote transparency and ownership, not just buy-in - Reflect on current organizational norms and use practical tools and templates to cultivate and activate teacher leadership Contents: Introduction Chapter 1: Closing the Authority Gap Chapter 2: Closing the Information Gap Chapter 3: Closing the Opportunity Gap Chapter 4: Closing the Culture Gap Epilogue Appendix References and Resources Index.…
