From the rear cover
TEACHERPRENEURS
Teacherpreneurs makes a simple, well-grounded claim: For the students of today and tomorrow to meet 21st-century learning standards, teachers must be transformative leaders. We need a bold new brand of teacher leadership that will create opportunities for teachers to cultivate and share their knowledge and expertise. Enter the teacherpreneur.
This book follows eight teacherpreneurs, observing their journeys toward becoming teacher leaders whose work is defined not by administrative procedures, but by their knowledge of students and drive to influence policies and practices. These personal narratives tell us much about innovative teachers who lead in bold ways but do not leave their classrooms. Teacherpreneurs shows how teachers can be connected, readied, and mobilized to drive the transformation of their profession.
PRAISE FOR TEACHERPRENEURS
"Filled with rich narratives and research, this book is a must-read for teachers, administrators, and researchers, as well as education policy leaders who must invest in teaching to build the profession-wide expertise that our students need and deserve."
--Linda Darling-Hammond, Charles Ducommun Professor of Education, Stanford University, California
"Our best teachers want to remain teachers, but they also want to help develop colleagues, write curriculum, and have a voice in shaping educational policy at the local, state, and national level. Empowering our most effective teachers to take on broader roles should be a goal of every district seeking reform."
--MaryEllen Elia, superintendent, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Florida
"Teacherpreneurs envisions a new renaissance for the teaching profession, where the roles of practitioner and leader are synonymous. It is at times poignant, in realistically considering this sacred profession's past and present. But, it is also genuinely powerful, personal--and, most importantly, relentlessly hopeful."
--Jason E. Glass, superintendent, Eagle County Schools, Colorado
