Blueprint for a Learning System: Create One Larger, More Flexible Team That Encourages Collaboration in All Directions
Ash, Paul B.; D'Auria, John
Journal of Staff Development, v34 n3 p42-46 Jun 2013
Every day, teachers and administrators come to work and do the best job they know how. In the book "School Systems That Learn" (Ash & D'Auria, 2013), the authors argue that most school systems, as they are currently designed, have reached or nearly reached the limits of their capacity and that systemic change is necessary to reach higher levels of learning for all students. To make this change possible, Ash & D'Auria have created a blueprint for building a system wide learning organization that focuses on professional learning as the stimulus to improve student achievement.
