Leading Continuous Improvement in Schools (PSEL/NELP Leadership Preparation)

Anderson, Erin

Eddy-Spicer, David H.

* Aligns improvement efforts with two sets of standards, NELP and PSEL - no other books in the field do this. * To help ground the main points in this volume, each chapter features a case that presents a leader who is simultaneously leading a school while also learning about improvement science in their graduate class. * To help instructors use this book in their courses, each chapter includes teaching notes and an action inventory aligned to the case examples and chapters. * Uses Improvement Science as a method of continuous change and equity as a values framework--this book centers equity in every improvement effort * This book helps to reframe the conversation about how data can be used by leaders for improvement -- it emphasizes creating a data culture that allows for experimentation and learning from failure and does not limit emphasis on lagging accountability data. * This book is comprehensive with attention to foundational theory and research on continuous improvement, practical methods of continuous improvement, and the leadership of continuous improvement
