Who will save our schools?

the long version

This book connects a unique combination of ideas for the first time: teaching as leading, constructivist leadership, an ecological perspective of systemic change, learning communities, and the professional development of teachers. The authors, who offer more than a century of combined experience as teachers, administrators, professors, and consultants, have synthesized these ideas into a new conception of teaching, learning, and leading, and set forth a new standard for school reform. Who Will Save Our Schools? was written for teachers, teacher educators, staff developers, school and district administrators, parent educators, policymakers, and researchers - all those who have a stake in the future of our educational system.
