Abstract The purpose of this research study was to explore the integration of indigenous knowledge and cultural practices in Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) programmes in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Vygotsky’s (1986) sociocultural theory in combination with Yosso’s (2005) community cultural wealth theory served as the conceptual as well as the methodological framework advising the components of this research. This qualitative case study invited perspectives from local parents, teachers, directors, a university faculty member, and administrative personnel from the Ministry of Education in Ethiopia. Major findings uncovered that language, the Ethiopian alphabet (fidel), traditions and cultural practices passed down from generation to generation, were seen as part of Ethiopia’s larger indigenous knowledge system. The value of using indigenous knowledge, including the extent of integration of cultural practices as measured through use of native language, curriculum and educational philosophy, revealed distinct language preferences (Amharic or English) based on school, personal wants and population demographics.
摘要本研究的目的是探索将土著知识和文化实践融入埃塞俄比亚亚的斯亚贝巴的幼儿保育和教育(ECCE)计划。维果茨基(1986)的社会文化理论与约索(2005)的社区文化财富理论相结合,为本研究的组成部分提供了概念和方法框架。这项定性案例研究邀请了当地家长、教师、董事、一名大学教员和埃塞俄比亚教育部行政人员的观点。主要研究结果表明,语言、埃塞俄比亚字母表、代代相传的传统和文化习俗被视为埃塞俄比亚更大的土著知识体系的一部分。使用土著知识的价值,包括通过使用土著语言、课程和教育哲学衡量的文化实践的融合程度,揭示了基于学校、个人需求和人口统计的不同语言偏好(阿姆哈拉语或英语)。

Abstract The literature on instructional leadership consistently assigns this role to school principals whilst indicating that it can be spread amongst others. Recently the spotlight has moved to middle leadership involving a focus on classrooms through direct instructional leadership. The purpose of this study was to add to a small but growing body of literature that centres on middle-level leadership in schools. The research aims were to conceptualise the nature of the direct form of instructional leadership that has been devolved to the middle leadership level; investigate perceptions of expectations held of middle leaders in schools; and investigate their perceived confidence in performing the role. An on-line survey of 185 primary and secondary school middle-level leaders confirmed strong agreement with the role expectations described in terms of a conceptual framework of direct instructional leadership. The results indicated that whilst overall confidence in performing these tasks was high, gaps existed between role expectations and performance confidence, with the function of “having difficult conversations” being the largest gap for both primary and secondary school middle-level leaders.
摘要关于教学领导的文献一贯将这一角色赋予校长,同时表明它可以在其他人中传播。最近,焦点转移到了中层领导,通过直接的教学领导来关注课堂。这项研究的目的是增加以学校中层领导为中心的少量但不断增长的文献。本研究的目的是对直接形式的教学领导的性质进行概念化,这种直接形式已被移交给中层领导;调查学校中层领导对期望的看法;并调查他们对扮演角色的信心。一项针对185名中小学中层领导的在线调查证实,他们与直接教学领导概念框架中描述的角色期望非常一致。结果表明,尽管对完成这些任务的总体信心很高,但角色期望和绩效信心之间存在差距,“进行艰难对话”的功能是中小学中层领导的最大差距。

Abstract Leading schools in Aotearoa New Zealand is a critical role. In a bicultural country, a key aspect of this role is developing a school ethos where culturally responsive practices are strongly embedded. Frequently, this is considered in light of the tamariki and rangatahi and their whānau within the wider school community. However, an area where there is a dearth of research is the experiences of Māori teachers working in mainstream schooling. This article focuses on the lived realities of six Māori teachers who completed a graduate qualification in immersion and bilingual teaching in Māori, and returned to their respective schools. The research consisted of the collection and analysis of a detailed written questionnaire and semi-structured interviews with the Māori teachers. The research found that the additional professional and cultural tasks and responsibilities that this group of Māori teachers undertook often went unrecognised financially or otherwise by their employers and fellow colleagues. These Māori teachers felt they were “culturally obliged” to tautoko the students they serve and to support their schools’ respective Māori communities.
摘要新西兰奥特亚的领导学校起着至关重要的作用。在一个双文化国家,这一角色的一个关键方面是培养一种学校风气,在这种风气中,强烈融入了文化响应实践。通常,这是根据更广泛的学校社区中的tamariki和rangatahi及其whānau来考虑的。然而,缺乏研究的一个领域是在主流学校工作的毛利人教师的经历。这篇文章关注的是六名毛利教师的生活现实,他们完成了毛利语沉浸式和双语教学的研究生资格,并返回了各自的学校。这项研究包括收集和分析一份详细的书面问卷,以及对毛利人教师的半结构化访谈。研究发现,这群毛利教师承担的额外专业和文化任务和责任往往在经济上或其他方面没有得到雇主和同事的认可。这些毛利族教师认为,他们“在文化上有义务”向他们服务的学生致敬,并支持学校各自的毛利社区。

Abstract Schools in New Zealand and parts of Australia are rapidly transitioning from traditional classrooms to coteaching in flexible learning spaces provisioned for 50 to 180 children and two to six teachers in a single space. In New Zealand, this transition is driven by the Ministry of Education who have specific guidelines for designing new schools and re-builds. School leaders and teachers must reconceptualise teaching and learning from private autonomous learning environments to co-teaching in shared learning spaces. This mixed methods study examined the views of 40 practitioners and leaders, experienced in coteaching contexts in New Zealand and Australian schools, to develop a greater understanding of the factors that contribute to effective co-teaching implementation. Not surprisingly, educators highlighted that shared beliefs about student centred pedagogy were pivotal to their co-teaching relationships. Beyond this central element, participants also identified a range of systems, tools, strategies and skills that enabled co-teaching to focus on and support student learning. The study provides insights of value to school leaders who are faced with the challenges of implementing flexible learning spaces, and leading school change in this area.
新西兰和澳大利亚部分地区的学校正在迅速从传统教室过渡到灵活的学习空间,一个空间可容纳50至180名儿童和2至6名教师。在新西兰,这种转变是由教育部推动的,他们对设计新学校和重建有具体的指导方针。学校领导和教师必须重新定义教与学,从私人自主学习环境转变为共享学习空间中的合作教学。这项混合方法研究调查了40名在新西兰和澳大利亚学校的联合教学环境中经验丰富的从业者和领导者的观点,以更好地了解有助于有效实施联合教学的因素。毫不奇怪,教育工作者强调,对以学生为中心的教学法的共同信念对他们的合作教学关系至关重要。除了这一核心要素之外,与会者还确定了一系列系统、工具、策略和技能,使联合教学能够关注和支持学生的学习。该研究为学校领导者提供了有价值的见解,他们面临着实施灵活学习空间的挑战,并在这一领域领导学校变革。

Widening the leadership story – moving beyond the individual 拓展领导力故事–超越个人
Pub Date : 2018-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/JELPP-2018-005
Linda Baxendine
Abstract Distributed leadership that includes democratic practices can open spaces for children and their families to share their knowledge and skills and participate in everyday early childhood leadership activity. Drawing on the findings of a Masters thesis this article discusses how one kindergarten’s exploration of the local community has afforded insights into reframing leadership as an emerging social process whereby teachers, children and families are participants in an approach to leadership described as democratic leadership. Past leadership research has commonly focused on skills, traits and behaviours of people deemed leaders. Moving away from the primacy of the individual towards knowing leadership as an emergent phenomenon that exists between people incorporating multiple worldviews, elevates democratic principles such as collaboration and meaningful participation. Leadership-as-practice was used to analyse the ways in which excursions into the community have broadened teachers’ understandings of leadership and fostered more democratic and inclusive participation of children and families in the kindergarten programme. Utilising excursions within the local community as a mechanism to support a democratic form of leadership suggests that leadership can be perceived as arising from the collective work of people in everyday contexts. The value of extending the learning environment beyond the boundaries of the kindergarten, to engage with the local community, offers possibilities to make connections with the surrounding land, understand local stories, histories and cultural events. In this sense democratic leadership intersects with place-based education as children’s awareness of themselves as citizens of a community deepens. Inquiry as a form of participatory democracy was a key feature of decision-making in this study and provided a common purpose for community excursions while encouraging leadership opportunities.
摘要包括民主实践在内的分布式领导力可以为儿童及其家人分享知识和技能,并参与日常幼儿领导力活动开辟空间。根据一篇硕士论文的研究结果,本文讨论了一所幼儿园对当地社区的探索如何为将领导力重新定义为一个新兴的社会过程提供了见解,在这个过程中,教师、儿童和家庭都参与了一种被称为民主领导力的领导力方法。过去的领导力研究通常集中在被视为领导者的人的技能、特质和行为上。从个人的首要地位转向了解领导力,这是一种存在于融合多种世界观的人与人之间的新兴现象,提升了合作和有意义的参与等民主原则。实践中的领导力被用来分析深入社区的方式,这些方式拓宽了教师对领导力的理解,并促进了儿童和家庭更民主、更包容地参与幼儿园计划。利用当地社区内的短途旅行作为支持民主领导形式的机制表明,领导可以被视为源于人们在日常环境中的集体工作。将学习环境扩展到幼儿园之外,与当地社区接触的价值,提供了与周围土地建立联系、了解当地故事、历史和文化事件的可能性。从这个意义上说,随着儿童对自己作为社区公民的认识加深,民主领导与基于地方的教育相交。调查作为参与式民主的一种形式,是本研究决策的一个关键特征,在鼓励领导机会的同时,为社区远足提供了一个共同目的。

Core professional values for school leaders and teachers: Piloting an online tool 学校领导和教师的核心专业价值观:试用在线工具
Pub Date : 2018-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/JELPP-2018-014

Abstract Evidence of the extent to which school leaders and teachers embrace core professional values may, through dialogue, open up new avenues for school improvement. With this in mind, the focus of this article is the piloting of an online survey tool designed to identify how widely four such values are held in New Zealand schools. The pilot was commissioned by the Te Ariki Trust with the support of the New Zealand Educational Institute (NZEI), the New Zealand Principals’ Federation (NZPF) and the University of Canterbury. The tool is based on items which together, define four values underpinning the mission of the Te Ariki Trust, namely “Professional Discretion”, “Collegial Obligation”, “Reflective Inquiry and Discourse” and “Evidencebased Professional Practice”. An analysis of one school’s responses to such a survey tool is one way to gauge evidence of collective commitment, the strength of collegial relationships and trust, with the realisation that knowing how to collect and reflect on data matters if important decisions are to be well informed. The article draws upon research and scholarly writing to explain the four values, describe the development of the tool and its pilot study and suggest what the results might offer for dialogue using the findings from a sample school whose staff members completed the instrument. Suggested changes to the instrument and its use conclude the article.
摘要学校领导和教师在多大程度上接受核心职业价值观的证据,可以通过对话为学校改进开辟新的途径。考虑到这一点,本文的重点是试行一种在线调查工具,旨在确定新西兰学校中四种此类价值观的持有范围。该试点项目由Te Ariki信托基金会委托,得到了新西兰教育研究所(NZEI)、新西兰校长联合会(NZPF)和坎特伯雷大学的支持。该工具基于共同定义了Te Ariki信托使命的四个价值观的项目,即“专业自由裁量权”、“大学义务”、“反思性调查和话语”和“基于证据的专业实践”。分析一所学校对此类调查工具的反应是衡量集体承诺、大学关系和信任强度的证据的一种方法,同时认识到,如果要充分了解重要决策,知道如何收集和反思数据至关重要。这篇文章利用研究和学术写作来解释这四个价值观,描述该工具的开发及其试点研究,并利用一所样本学校的研究结果提出对话的结果,该学校的工作人员完成了该工具。对该文书及其使用提出的修改建议是该条的结论。

Disrupting the “paradigm of one”: Restructuring structures to integrate learning in a modern learning environment 打破“单一范式”:重组结构,将学习融入现代学习环境
Pub Date : 2017-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/jelpp-2017-005

Abstract Curriculum integration in secondary schools appears to be difficult to achieve in schools that are built on traditional models of single classrooms and a compartmentalised curriculum. The relatively insular nature of secondary school classrooms is, however, being upended in the design of new schools in New Zealand, which disrupt the single-cell classroom tradition. One principal of a new school labels this old model as the “paradigm of one”: a shorthand descriptor for the single-classroom, single-teacher, singleclass, single-subject, single assessment arrangements generally prevalent in such contexts. The aim of this principal and this new school is to provide responsive, connected, collaborative, and deep learning. This article outlines efforts of that secondary school to restructure the “structuring structures” usually underpinning secondary schools, and organise learning. To that end, staff have interrogated, pulled apart and reconstituted the national curriculum document to provide an integrated learning structure. In rethinking conventional views of curriculum implementation in a secondary school, the school has created an innovative “logic of practice”. I examine the thinking behind curriculum decision-making in this school and provide a glimpse of how this is played out in the first two years of its existence.
在建立在单一教室和划分课程的传统模式上的学校中,中学课程整合似乎很难实现。然而,新西兰新学校的设计颠覆了中学教室相对孤立的性质,打破了单细胞教室的传统。一所新学校的一位校长将这种旧模式称为“单一范式”:这是对这种情况下普遍存在的单一教室、单一教师、单一课堂、单一学科、单一评估安排的简略描述。这位校长和这所新学校的目标是提供响应、联系、协作和深度学习。本文概述了该中学在重组通常支撑中学的“结构结构”和组织学习方面所做的努力。为此目的,工作人员对国家课程文件进行了审查、拆解和重组,以提供一个综合的学习结构。在重新思考中学课程实施的传统观点时,学校创造了一种创新的“实践逻辑”。我考察了这所学校课程决策背后的思考,并提供了它在成立后的头两年是如何发挥作用的一瞥。

Innovative learning environments: Beginning with the concept 创新的学习环境:从概念开始
Pub Date : 2017-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/jelpp-2017-002

Abstract There is an observable trend in a number of countries, of schools moving away from the traditional or industrial modes of school organisation and leaning towards what has become known as modern or innovative learning environments (MLEs or ILEs). This has created difficulties for educational leaders who have found the change problematic. This article addresses the need to develop an appropriate and comprehensive conceptual understanding of the ILEs in order to introduce a different learning model and environment. In this model the authors use the notion of architectures to describe the process of “building” the concept.

It acknowledges that the notion of ILEs is new, and requires time to be refined and embedded in existing educational systems.
摘要在许多国家,学校有一种明显的趋势,即从传统或工业的学校组织模式转向现代或创新的学习环境(MLE或ILE)。这给那些发现这一变化有问题的教育领导人带来了困难。本文提出了对ILE进行适当和全面的概念理解的必要性,以便引入不同的学习模式和环境。在这个模型中,作者使用架构的概念来描述“构建”概念的过程。他们提出了学习、社会、思维、未来、组织和物理架构的发展。这篇文章是推测性的,但包含了适当的理论。它承认ILE的概念是新的,需要时间来完善和嵌入现有的教育系统。

Abstract Leadership within the early childhood education (ECE) sector in New Zealand is both positionally assigned and a required practice of all teachers. Within this context, distributed leadership – where all team members have the opportunity to lead – is increasingly seen as an effective leadership model. This article reports on a study whose aim was to discover practices of effective positional leaders in facilitating distributed leadership. A nationwide survey was carried out in Aotearoa New Zealand to capture a picture of current perceptions of ECE teachers and positional leaders about distributed leadership for professional learning. Subsequently, leadership practices for distributed leadership in three previously-identified high quality ECE services were investigated through individual and group interviews. The analysis of literature, survey and interview findings from this study led to a framework of effective leadership practice, consisting of: mentoring and coaching; fostering relational trust; and creating vision and designing supportive structures.
摘要新西兰幼儿教育部门的领导既有职位分配,也是所有教师的必修课。在这种背景下,分布式领导——所有团队成员都有机会领导——越来越被视为一种有效的领导模式。本文报道了一项研究,其目的是发现有效的职位领导者在促进分布式领导方面的实践。在新西兰奥特亚罗阿进行了一项全国性调查,以了解欧洲经委会教师和职位领导目前对专业学习分散领导的看法。随后,通过个人和小组访谈,调查了先前确定的三个欧洲经委会高质量服务中分散领导的领导做法。通过对文献、调查和访谈结果的分析,得出了一个有效的领导实践框架,包括:指导和辅导;培养关系信任;以及创造愿景和设计支持性结构。
