The future of learning depends absolutely on the future of
teaching. In this latest and most important collaboration, Andy
Hargreaves and Michael Fullan show how the quality of teaching is
captured in a compelling new idea: the professional capital of
every teacher working together in every school. Speaking out
against policies that result in a teaching force that is
inexperienced, inexpensive, and exhausted in short order, these two
world authorities—who know teaching and leadership inside
out—set out a groundbreaking new agenda to transform the future
of teaching and public education. Ideas-driven, evidence-based, and
strategically powerful, Professional Capital combats the tired
arguments and stereotypes of teachers and teaching and shows us how
to change them by demanding more of the teaching profession and
more from the systems that support it. This is a book that no one
connected with schools can afford to ignore. Book Features: A
powerful and practical solution to what ails American schools.
Action guidelines for all groups—individual teachers,
administrators, schools and districts, state and federal leaders. A
next-generation update of core themes from the authors’
bestselling book, What’s Worth Fighting for in Your School?
