A SYMPHONY OF SKILLS

摘要

Skilled collaborative leaders are in high demand in schools, school systems, and districts worldwide. The success of schools as learning organizations hinges on how well people can work together as they seek to build collective capacity and problem solve to improve student outcomes. As the Leadership standard of Learning Forward's Standards for Professional Learning states, we need "skillful leaders who develop capacity, advocate, and create support systems for professional learning" (Learning Forward, 2011). Collaborative learning has now emerged as the vital strategy for learning - both for staff and students.
