Teacher Learning and Leadership asserts that teachers should be put
at the center of creating, developing, organizing, implementing,
and sharing their own ideas for school change rather than being
passive recipients of knowledge from the outside. It argues that
there is tremendous potential for the good of students and the
professionalization of teaching, when teachers work collaboratively
to develop their own and their colleagues' professional knowledge
and practices and are supported by school and system leaders,
unions and government. The book draws on the groundbreaking work of
the Teacher Learning and Leadership Program in Ontario and uses an
in-depth case study to illustrate its points. It demonstrates how
professional development built around collaboration, teacher
leadership, curriculum development, technology and pedagogy can be
organized in a way that redistributes control and responsibility to
teachers, thereby instilling a genuine sense of pride and
accomplishment in their work. This book is a sincere outreach from
the authors who advocate for the professional development of, by
and for teachers as individuals and, importantly, as a collective
profession. The authors argue that projects like the TLLP (a joint
initiative between the Ontario Ministry of Education and the
Ontario Teachers' Federation) can radically, and positively,
transform teachers' knowledge, skills and practices. The book
provides an important model for school change led by teachers,
rather than experts, in partnership with school and system leaders
and is a fascinating read for all those concerned with teaching,
teacher development and educational change.
