Students, parents, teachers, leaders, and policy-makers generate
and take responsibility for their efforts, often without
understanding the nature of the responsibility they hold. Barbara
S. Stengel argues that every educational interaction is a call to
and opportunity for responsibility for all involved. In short,
responsibility represents the goal for students, the guiding vision
for educators’ practice, and a useful design principal for
leaders and policy makers. Using a critical pragmatist framing of
the concept of responsibility, Stengel shows how greater attention
to responsibility allows for a deeper understanding of diversity
and equity as well as individual and common goods. It enables a
deeper understanding of the moral dimensions of teaching and
learning prospectively in growth rather than retrospectively in
blame. The philosophical discussion of responsibility is coupled
with discussion of the lived experiences of students, teachers,
aides, and administrators and draws evidence from a case study of a
middle school turnaround in Nashville, USA. The Bailey Middle
School community developed a reading of responsibility that matched
educators’ intuitions and experiences of their work, while
enhancing students’ understanding of their place in the world.
The book represents a call for educators to be, and become,
responsible for their and their students’ lives-in-common and the
individual well-being of all in the community.
