While many books address the 'what' of change in education, this
addresses the 'how'. The pressure for continuous adaptation and
innovation in education is relentless, yet there is more failure in
implementation of change than success. These failures are damaging
to staff and students, as well as costly. Change Matters offers a
practical guide to change management for teachers and
administrators across all education sectors and for training
managers in workplace settings. Change Matters assists educators to
develop their abilities to manage their own change projects, and
also to help their organisations to manage their overall
improvement and innovation activities. Geoff Scott draws on
successful experience to create a framework for the educational
change process. He shows how to initiate, develop, implement and
evaluate a new learning program, and how to manage continuous
quality improvement and innovation at the organisational level. The
need for leadership is assessed, and the particular circumstances
of workplace trainers are discussed. The book is illustrated with
case studies and reflective exercises which can be used
individually or with other educators. 'An eminently readable and
practical guide for those who want to make sure that the
educational changes they attempt really do make a difference for
their students. Highly recommended.' - Professor Michael Fullan,
Dean, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of
Toronto, and author of The New Meaning of Educational Change and of
the What's Worth Fighting For trilogy with Andy Hargreaves.
