'This essential guide for educational leaders skillfully blends
scholarship with practice and integrates theory with real-world
examples. Through case studies, the authors show the reader how to
develop, support, and improve a collaborative, inquiry-action
process for improving teaching and learning. If we are going to
have schools that successfully educate all students to high
standards, then we need principals who translate the lessons of
this book into practice' - Andrew Lachman, Executive Director,
Connecticut Center for School Change Enhance learning with a
collaborative, inquiry-based system of leadership! With
sociopolitical forces prompting calls for school improvement,
school leaders look for ways to expand their expertise in
instructional leadership and strengthen their role in shaping
classroom practice. Leading With Inquiry and Action presents a
systematic, ongoing process for collecting information, making
decisions, and taking action to improve instruction and raise
student achievement. The authors illustrate this collaborative
inquiry-action cycle with a running vignette of an experienced
principal and offer questions and exercises to guide individual
reflection and group discussion. Thoroughly grounded in research,
this book helps administrators: - Identify areas for instructional
improvement - Determine community-supported solutions and build
stakeholder commitment - Articulate an action plan based on
multiple data sources - Take steps that support teacher development
- Systematically evaluate programme results Educational improvement
requires informed leadership. This practical guide provides an
efficient and functional framework for transforming current or
aspiring principals into inquiry-minded, action-oriented
instructional leaders.
