Education Futures for School Leadership: Evidence-Informed Strategies for Managing Change

Autor J-C Couture, Stephen Murgatroyd
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 oct 2024
Education Futures for School Leadership is a comprehensive resource to support school leaders as they encounter the growing complexity and uncertainties that characterize life in schools today. Moving beyond conventional change management literature, this book invites current and aspiring school leaders to apply the interdisciplinary tools of futures studies and strategic foresight to their work.
Given our shared global challenges, young people deserve schools that are agile, adaptive, and responsive to many possible futures. Driven by the imperatives of equity and inclusion, the authors provide practical, evidence-informed strategies, real-world examples, and use cases of futures thinking applied to school staff development and change strategies. Each chapter engages with key educational realities: differentiating instructional planning and assessment, the impacts of artificial intelligence and other technologies, the growing psycho-social issues young people are facing, and more.
Informed by years of international collaboration with forward-thinking school leaders and scholars, this book is both a field guide and a call to action for navigating the influence of the future on our present moment and the challenges and promises shaping school life today.

Recenzii

“Couture and Murgatroyd boldly take advantage of the work being done worldwide to better understand and apply futures literacy. This book makes a timely and inspiring contribution to rethinking the relationships entangling leadership, learning, and imagining the future.”
—Riel Miller, PhD, Former Head of Futures Literacy at UNESCO.

“The authors have found the perfect balance between theory, conceptual frameworks, case studies, and activities. This book is of great use to the teacher, curriculum designer, leader, policymaker, principal, and indeed, the student. Every chapter wisely consists of theory, method, case study, and activities. The book is both rigorous and easy to use. I strongly recommend this book.”
—Sohail Inayatullah, PhD, UNESCO Chair in Futures Studies at the Sejahtera Centre for Sustainability and Humanity at the International Islamic University Malaysia, Malaysia

“For busy school leaders, the field of future studies has often seemed barrenly speculative and exasperatingly impractical—until now. This new gem of a book by tested change leaders J-C Couture and Stephen Murgatroyd is bristling with the perfect blend of conceptual breakthroughs and down-to-earth guidelines that make it an instant classic. Best of all, the book is a real page-turner, with writing so energetic and messages so exciting that you just can’t wait to see what you will be learning next. Education Futures for School Leadership is a welcome addition to every thinking person’s bookshelf.”
—Dennis Shirley, PhD, Research Professor, Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College, USA

Education Futures for School Leadership is an essential guide for principals, teachers, and anyone committed to shaping the future of education. As the landscape of learning evolves unpredictably, the challenge for school leaders is to navigate these dynamic changes and envision the possibilities of future schools. This book provides invaluable insights and strategies, helping educators not only to adapt but to lead in reimagining what future schools can become.”
—Pasi Sahlberg, PhD, Professor of Educational Leadership at the University of Melbourne, Australia

“The world has always been volatile and uncertain, and today the stakes are higher than ever. Couture and Murgatroyd’s new book offers educators and education leaders innovative and practical strategies to rethink how they address the growing challenges they face. The book engages the thinking tools of future studies, making them accessible and easy to understand. It offers both thoughtful, grounded insights and actionable steps to help envision alternative futures for education. I highly recommend this book to anyone involved in education.”
—Eric Heins, former President of the California Teachers Association
