In Teacher Leadership, Lieberman and Miller discuss current
changes in the teacher’s role, and make sense of the research on
teacher leadership. They offer case studies of innovative programs
– such as the National Writing Project – that provide teachers with
opportunities to lead within a professional community. In addition,
they tell stories of individual teachers – from Maine to California
– who are able to lead in a variety of contexts. Teacher
Leadership offers a new standard of teaching and community that
recognizes all teachers as leaders. It shows how to develop
learning communities that include rather than exclude, create
knowledge rather than merely apply it, and that offer challenge and
support to both new and experienced teachers.
This book is a volume in the Jossey-Bass Leadership Library in
Education – a series designed to meet the demand for new ideas and
insights about leadership in schools.
