<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Unquestioned educational practices must be re-examined. In this book, Cameron interrogates the current school system. She draws on research, the practice of colleagues and her own experiences as a teacher and principal to create pictures of possibility for our schools where every learner belongs and succeeds.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>It's Time to Think Differently About School Leadership </em></strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Unquestioned educational practices must be re-examined</strong>. Now, more than ever, we need to breathe new life into school leadership to bring much-needed hope for renewal into our classrooms and schools. Our humanity's future rests on the shoulders of our young people who deserve the most <strong>effective, empowered collective of teachers</strong> possible. Working and <strong>learning together</strong> with teachers across corridors, departments, and disciplines, school leaders can make this a reality. </p><p>In this one-of-a-kind exploration into the practice of school leadership, Dr. Carolyn Cameron moves beyond leadership theory or prescriptive "how to be a leader" guidelines. She courageously addresses the gap between knowing and doing, and takes a deep dive into the space of <strong><em>being </em>a school leader</strong> dedicated to the work of nurturing the <strong>authentic learning</strong> of students and their teachers. </p><p>Cameron draws on her own lived experiences as a <strong>teacher, principal</strong>, and district principal. She adds to this personal journey the insights of colleagues, scholars, philosophers, and researchers, and takes inspiration from poets, writers, and students. This ground-breaking book weaves all of this together in a way that will cause the reader to think differently about <strong>teaching, learning, leading, </strong> and perhaps even life itself. </p>
