Paperback. Condition: New. Achieving Coherence in District Improvement focuses on a problem of practice faced by educational leaders across the nation: how to effectively manage the relationship between the central office and schools. The book is based on a study of five large urban districts that have demonstrated improvement in student achievement. The authors-all members of Harvard University's Public Education Leadership Project (PELP)-argue that there is no "one best way" to structure the central offi ce-school relationship. Instead, they say, what matters is whether district leaders eff ectively select and implement their strategy by achieving coherence among key elementsand actors-the district's environment, resources, systems, structures, stakeholders, and culture.The authors examine the fi ve districts' approaches in detail and point to a number of important findings. First, they emphasize that a clear, shared understanding of decision rights in key areas-academic programming, budgeting, and staffing-is essential to developing an eff ective central office-school relationship. Second, they stress the importance of building mutually supportive and trusting relationships between district leaders and principals. Third, they highlight the ways that culture and the external environment infl uence the relationship between the central office and schools. Each chapter also provides relevant "Lessons for Practice"-actionable takeaways-that educational leaders from any district can use to improve the central office-school relationship.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Youth in a World of Men' is a compelling exploration of progressive education and child development by the influential educator Marietta Johnson. In this work, Johnson outlines her philosophy of 'organic education,' which centers on the belief that schooling should align with the natural, healthy growth of the child rather than conforming to the rigid, artificial demands of society. She argues passionately against the standardizing pressures of the traditional classroom, advocating instead for an environment where children can thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally through self-directed activity and creative expression.Johnson examines the tension between the needs of developing youth and the expectations of an adult-driven world, emphasizing that true education must nourish the whole person. By prioritizing the intrinsic interests of the student and the importance of experiential learning, 'Youth in a World of Men' offers a visionary critique of early 20th-century pedagogy. This book remains a significant historical document for those interested in the roots of student-centered learning and the enduring debate over the purpose of education in fostering human potential. It provides a timeless perspective on the value of childhood and the role of the educator in guiding, rather than forcing, the development of the young mind.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
