Collaborative Leadership Capacity

Whole district change initiatives depends on resolute leadership at the district level, which in turn develops collaborative capacity within and across schools.

Page 5: Engage, Inquire and Inspire IMSS Leadership Institute Fall 2012

Collaboration and Leadership:

The practice and research on collaborative school cultures and professional learning communities is very convincing. When teachers work together, led by an instructionally-focused principal, they are much more successful than when they work alone.

Lateral Capacity

Building lateral capacity means connecting schools within a district—and even more broadly—to develop new ideas, skills, and practices that increase the ability of individuals and organizations to bring about improvements.

Guiding Assumption of Framework:

Both Content Knowledge and Scientific Practices

“Science is not just a body of knowledge that reflects current understanding of the world; it is also a set of practices used to establish, extend and refine that knowledge. Both elements– knowledge and practice--- are essential.”

"To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination

and marks real advance in science.” Albert Einstein

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” –

Albert Einstein

Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn't be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn't know it, so it goes on flying

anyway.
