Beskrivning
This book analyzes and synthesizes key elements of the most recent and dynamic emergent theory and practice of leadership—constructivist leadership. It presents the theory and practice in a down-to-earth, easy-to-read approach that removes fear and anxiety, using case studies revealing both the underlying philosophy and practical strategies both to teach and to lead constructivistically. Constructivist leadership is the most democratic form of leadership and can be used to reform schools to make them considerably more productive, effective, and healthy for kids and faculty, as the case studies demonstrate. Strategies are presented in pictorial, step-by-step, easy-to-follow diagrams. The book offers insights into the keys that make organizations and individuals tick and then to learn to use these insights in practical, constructive, and constructivist leadership approaches.

Recensioner i media

Education has been subjected to the latest hula-hoop solutions ever since The Nation at Risk propelled school reform into the national limelight in 1983. While constructivist leadership has been around since John Dewey crafted a lab school at the University of Chicago in the early twentieth century, it has taken someone like Art Shapiro to write a book that unites the work of teachers and administrators in practical ways that produce results in real school settings. Shapiro knows how schools work and he understands the larger theoretical issues that must be addressed without pontificating or losing the reader in unnecessary social science jargon. His case studies and practical suggestions will make constructivist concepts come alive.
