| Book Subtitle | School Renewal In Action |
| Book Description | This book, a sequel to A Resource Book for Improving Principals' Learning-Centered Leadership, first introduces the content and process of the Learning-Centered Leadership Development Program. It then presents nine case studies and a cross-case analysis of how schools enacted the content and process, in a framework of school renewal, to improve their school operations and student achievement. The book is unique in offering an inside view from the perspective of the school personnel. Finally, it summarizes the parameters of the renewal model (versus the reform model). The book will be useful for school administrators and teachers, educational policy makers, and educational researchers. |
| Editorial Review | "Shen and Burt provide a refreshing perspective on renewing ownership of learning from within schools as opposed to blindly implementing reform. The authors remind us that school renewal is far more challenging and satisfying than simple reform fixes. They build on the generational legacy of John Goodlad and bring school renewal into the complex world of accountability forresults. Their work extends the field of school leadership." (Bradley Portin, Dean and Professor of Education, University of Washington, Bothell) "As a Learning-Centered School Leadership practitioner, I have lived the meaningful philosophies of school renewal versus the informational blizzard from the cottage industry of school reform. I can fully attest to the truth and accuracy of this important work in school improvement. The authors have encapsulated in written form and action research what took decades for me to stumble upon on my own. I wish I had this knowledge and insight at my fingertips years ago!"
