Book Description
The book is comprehensive and highly informative, but can be appreciated by all levels in whatever courses or fields of endeavor the render or user may be in. More than anything else, the exercise will certainly prove very helpful for Filipino students to learn a language that we are not native speakers of. Again, congratulations for this splendid work! I am truly honored to have been a part of this intellectual pursuit.

Leadership for Professional Learning
Author: Sue SwaffieldPublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000829413
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
This book brings together a collection of inquiries into the connections between educational leadership, understood as an activity that can be performed by both educators and students, and professional learning, understood as an activity undertaken by educators to improve teaching and learning within educational settings. The book is framed by two reviews of the academic literature, which together provide a broad overview of the published literature as well as a more targeted look at where this work intersects with issues of educational equity. The remaining chapters, which include both conceptual and empirical pieces, explore leadership for professional learning from multiple vantage points, including student leadership, teacher leadership, senior leadership, and shared leadership across roles. Collectively the chapters contribute to challenging the commonly accepted notion that the exercise of leadership is the sole purview of those in positions of status, and honoring the complexity of interactions among students, teachers, and senior leaders that influence teaching and learning outcomes. In so doing they inform both future practice and research. All but one of the chapters in this book were originally published in the journal, Professional Development in Education.
