Public education in turbulent times : innovative strategies for leadership and learning / Faiza M. Jamil, Javaid E. Siddiqi.

Jamil, Faiza M. (Author). Siddiqi, Javaid E. (Added Author).

Summary:

Public Education in Turbulent Times communicates a bold vision for the future of education, addressing the evolving purpose of American public education and the structural innovations schools are using to meet the needs of a rapidly transforming world. Highlighting key challenges that emerged during the immense economic and social disruptions of recent years, the book leverages case studies of four unique school districts where school communities overcame concerns high in the public consciousness - trauma, danger, economic inequality, and racial injustice. These obstacles have hampered efforts to reclaim lost learning opportunities that could define the educational experiences of a generation of students. If educators revert to business as usual, they risk dismissing essential lessons from resilient schools that thrived in the chaos of a global pandemic and its fallout. This book provides rich insights to refocus readers' attention on achieving a more equitable and safe education system for the future.
