EDU 512 : Educational Leadership and Societal Change: The Distinguished Practitioners Series

EDU 512 takes advantage of the Winter Block to bring to campus a series of distinguished practitioners – leaders who have made a discernible difference in a school, a district, at the state and/or national level to advance humanistic, community-based education and learning – to explore with students the special themes and concerns of the MA Program in Educational Leadership and Societal Change. Five to six visiting practitioners rotate through the class for two days at a time over a three and a half week long seminar designed to provide the benefits of time and place-tested professional judgement and experience, including insights into the special challenges to successful and effective educational leadership not only as it impacts schools but the entire society.
