Abstract Setting up a brand new primary school is always a challenge but with limited resources this challenge is exacerbated. A model of curriculum, developed by James Beane (1997) and defined as “Integrated Curriculum”, which used a democratic approach, was trialled in the new school. It was co-constructed with students and had not been previously used in a full primary school before in New Zealand. This proved to be yet another challenge. In this reflective narrative, the Foundation Principal shares her experience of the development of the model based on the principles of social justice and democracy and the unexpected results it brings.
建立一所全新的小学一直是一项挑战,而在资源有限的情况下,这一挑战更加严峻。詹姆斯·比恩(James Beane, 1997)开发了一种课程模式,并将其定义为“综合课程”,这种模式采用了民主的方法,并在新学校进行了试验。它是与学生共同建造的,在新西兰之前还没有在一所完整的小学中使用过。事实证明,这又是一个挑战。在这段反思性的叙述中,基金会负责人分享了她基于社会正义和民主原则的模式发展的经验,以及它带来的意想不到的结果。

Abstract This article addresses effective school leaders so that leaders may navigate robust, vigorous and well-thought through changes and supports in schools to raise the engagement and achievement of Pasifika learners. From a Pasifika perspective, a “true leader” in education is an effective leader, a leader with high integrity (aloaia) and standing, who is driven by culturally responsive principles, values, aspirations and world views of the students. Such a leader utilizes a personal humanitarian approach with the self-belief, courage, determination and perseverance to wholeheartedly take students from where they are currently at in learning, to where they need to be. This research used Talanoa methodology to explore the perceptions off our principals on supporting Pasifika students in primary and secondary New Zealand schools. This research found a significant need for effective leadership by principals to navigate educational changes that genuinely make a difference to unlock doors of opportunities in every school to raise achievement and wellbeing for all Pasifika learners.
本文讨论了有效的学校领导者,以便领导者可以通过学校的变化和支持来引导强大,充满活力和深思熟虑的,以提高Pasifika学习者的参与度和成就。从帕西菲卡的角度来看,教育中的“真正的领导者”是一个有效的领导者,一个具有高度诚信(aloaia)和地位的领导者,他受到学生的文化响应原则、价值观、愿望和世界观的驱动。这样的领导者运用个人的人道主义方法,带着自信、勇气、决心和毅力,全心全意地把学生从他们目前的学习状态带到他们需要去的地方。本研究使用Talanoa方法来探讨新西兰中小学校长对支持帕西菲卡学生的看法。这项研究发现,校长非常需要有效的领导来引导教育变革,真正发挥作用,为每所学校打开机会之门,提高所有帕西菲卡学习者的成就和福祉。

Assessment within ILP: A journey of collaborative inquiry ILP内的评估:合作探究之旅
Pub Date : 2017-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/jelpp-2017-012

Abstract Innovative Learning Pedagogies (ILPs) have given rise to much focus on the pedagogical changes required to ensure students work collaboratively, apply knowledge, create outcomes and communicate these outcomes effectively. One key element that has had much less focus is how students are assessed when working in an Innovative Learning Environment (ILE) and how this assessment information might be communicated to all stakeholders. As a school, we commenced our collaborative inquiry using action research-based Professional Learning to enable us to assess and track students who might not be in our assigned class and reflect upon whether traditional written reports to parents fitted the new pedagogies. Key findings from collaboration with teachers, students and parents demonstrated the desire for a system of assessment that was online and allowed: Higher levels of student voice and agency On-going review so that the most current information about achievement and goals was available Parents to share in the richness of their child’s learning journey A holistic profile of the students, rather than one which purely focussed on academic achievements. We believe that the outcomes of this assessment inquiry will have a significant impact on all teaching and learning in our ILEs.
创新学习教学法(ILPs)引起了人们对确保学生协同工作、应用知识、创造成果并有效交流这些成果所需的教学变革的关注。一个不太受关注的关键因素是,在创新学习环境(ILE)中,如何对学生进行评估,以及如何将评估信息传达给所有利益相关者。作为一所学校,我们开始使用基于行动研究的专业学习进行合作调查,使我们能够评估和跟踪可能不在我们指定班级的学生,并反思传统的书面报告是否适合新的教学方法。与教师、学生和家长合作的主要发现表明了对在线评估系统的渴望:更高水平的学生声音和代理持续审查,以便获得有关成就和目标的最新信息,家长可以分享孩子学习之旅的丰富内容学生的整体概况,而不仅仅是单纯关注学业成就。我们相信这次评估调查的结果将对我们的教学和学习产生重大影响。

Abstract There is a continued emphasis on the importance of building collaborative working relationships between school principals and counsellors to address the growing academic, career and college readiness, and social-emotional needs of students in K-12 schools. This study explored and analysed 1466 school principals ‘perceptions around important school counselling priorities, perceptions, and activities that are carried out in Turkish public and private schools. The study additionally explored school principals’ expectations of school counsellors’ roles and responsibilities as aligned with traditional and transformed school counselling programmes and practices. This study may be of value to school leaders, policy makers and educators interested in revising and improving their school counselling services to meet the complex academic and counselling needs of students in contemporary schools.
学校校长和辅导员之间建立协作工作关系的重要性一直受到重视,以解决K-12学校学生日益增长的学术、职业和大学准备以及社会情感需求。本研究探讨并分析了1466名校长对土耳其公立和私立学校中重要的学校咨询优先事项、观念和活动的看法。该研究还探讨了学校校长对学校辅导员的角色和责任的期望,这些角色和责任与传统和转型的学校咨询计划和实践相一致。本研究对有意修订和改善学校辅导服务以满足当代学校学生复杂的学业和辅导需求的学校领导、政策制定者和教育工作者可能有价值。

Tui tui tuituia - Weaving together: What can be generalized from these articles? Tui Tui tutuia -编织在一起:从这些文章中可以概括出什么?

As has been often acknowledged amid the articles presented in this JELPP special issue, the impetus for its focus on leadership for social justice arose out of the editors' involvement in the international research project exploring the same phenomenon. One of the key questions guiding this particular international research project is: How can an international and comparative research enhance our understanding of what social justice leadership means in different national contexts? To date, this research project has attracted the involvement of some 36 universities across 25 different countries. Indeed, there are research sites in each and every continent. It seems that the issue of social justice, and how it can be proclaimed and established through suitable leadership, has become a global concern. Arguably, there is growing scepticism about the panacean social benefits of neo-liberal economic policies. Despite the economic influence of such policies for more than 20 years, people are not witnessing the heralded social benefits of a free market. Quite the contrary, it seems that the rich are getting richer and more people are becoming disadvantaged (OECD, 2011). Now it seems that rather than leaving socially just outcomes to the insentient vagaries of national economic policies, a significant number of people around the world are striving to reclaim this perceived essential human responsibility. Thus, a laudable aim of this international research project is, first, to understand what constitutes leadership for social justice and then, provided there are discernible universal norms and principles, propose ways in which such leadership can be nurtured and enhanced. Surely any means for broadening and hastening the spread of leadership for social justice is a worthwhile achievement.
正如在本期JELPP特刊中所呈现的文章中经常承认的那样,其关注社会正义领导力的动力来自于编辑参与探索同一现象的国际研究项目。指导这个特殊的国际研究项目的关键问题之一是:国际和比较研究如何加强我们对社会正义领导在不同国家背景下意味着什么的理解?迄今为止,这个研究项目已经吸引了来自25个不同国家的36所大学的参与。事实上,每个大洲都有研究地点。看来,社会正义的问题,以及如何通过适当的领导来宣布和建立社会正义,已经成为一个全球性的问题。可以说,人们越来越怀疑新自由主义经济政策的万灵药社会效益。尽管这些政策对经济产生了20多年的影响,但人们并没有看到自由市场所预示的社会效益。恰恰相反,似乎富人越来越富有,而越来越多的人处于不利地位(经合组织,2011)。现在看来,世界上有相当多的人正在努力收回这种被认为是人类的基本责任,而不是将社会公正的结果留给国家经济政策的无情变幻莫测。因此,这个国际研究项目的一个值得称赞的目标是,首先了解什么是社会正义的领导能力,然后,如果有明显的普遍规范和原则,提出培养和加强这种领导能力的方法。当然,任何扩大和加速社会正义领导权传播的手段都是值得取得的成就。

Shifting leadership out of the backyard: Expanding opportunities for women leading in higher education in the Solomon Islands 将领导权转移到后院:扩大所罗门群岛女性在高等教育中的领导机会
Pub Date : 2015-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/JELPP-2015-006

Abstract In the Solomon Islands, the paucity of women represented in educational leadership positions is an issue of social justice. This is an area of concern as, although women experience opportunities to practise leadership in a range of community contexts, their access to leadership in the field of education is restricted by a number of social and cultural discourses that marginalize women leaders. This qualitative research investigated the leadership experiences of ten women leaders located in one cultural context, the unique island of Santa Isabel in the Solomon Islands. Semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions were engaged to explore women’s leadership perceptions and experiences and how these ideas were realized in the way they practised leadership. Findings indicated that women’s perceptions of, and participation in, leadership was immersed in a cultural context which was founded on a belief of matrilineal leadership culture providing opportunities for women to have power and respect in community contexts but not necessarily organizational contexts. However, the findings also illustrated the challenges met by these women when they sought to extend their leadership practices beyond the home and their close communities, into organizations. Although a complex concept to negotiate, extending the cultural discourses of matrilineal leadership into educational leadership contexts may provide an alternative and supporting mechanism to enhance the representation of women in formal educational leadership positions in the Solomon Islands.
在所罗门群岛,女性在教育领导岗位上的代表性不足是一个社会正义问题。这是一个令人关切的领域,因为尽管妇女有机会在一系列社区环境中发挥领导作用,但她们在教育领域发挥领导作用的机会受到一些排斥妇女领导人的社会和文化话语的限制。这项定性研究调查了十位女性领导者的领导经历,她们都生活在一个文化背景下,即所罗门群岛独特的圣伊莎贝尔岛。采用半结构化访谈和焦点小组讨论来探讨女性的领导观念和经验,以及如何在她们实践领导的方式中实现这些想法。研究结果表明,妇女对领导的认知和参与是在一种文化背景下产生的,这种文化背景是建立在一种信仰之上的,即母系领导文化为妇女提供了在社区环境中拥有权力和受到尊重的机会,但不一定是在组织环境中。然而,调查结果也表明,当这些女性试图将她们的领导实践从家庭和亲密社区扩展到组织中时,她们遇到了挑战。虽然这是一个难以谈判的复杂概念,但将母系领导的文化话语扩展到教育领导范围内,可能提供一种替代和支助机制,以提高妇女在所罗门群岛正式教育领导职位上的代表性。

Researching social justice for students with special educational needs 为有特殊教育需要的学生研究社会公正
Pub Date : 2015-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/jelpp-2015-009
Rose Symes
Abstract Following international trends, and research evidence from New Zealand, England and the USA, it is likely that there will be an exponential increase in the number of students with special educational needs (SEN) enrolling in New Zealand schools in the ensuing years. Furthermore, the face of special needs is changing such that what is meant by the term, ‘special needs’, appears to be highly contestable and somewhat elusive. Although international literature uses the term ‘special needs’ unproblematically, what is now considered to be special needs appears far more complicated. Research by Graham-Matheson (2012a), Richards (2012) and Hall (1997) shows that the term ‘special needs’ leads to preconceptions which often ignore contextual issues. This can exacerbate the learning difficulties of students with special educational needs because it tends to support inappropriate leadership practices, ineffective teaching techniques, and insufficient resourcing in the context of these particular students. While education is considered to be a moral enterprise, the field of special education is arguably wrought with ethical dilemmas and moral problems, especially when educators are called upon to advocate for children with disabilities who often comprise a minority group within a school community (Fiedler & VanHaren, 2009; Hallett & Hallett, 2012). This article elaborates upon these perspectives so as to highlight the seriousness of this issue and, hence, to stress the need for its implications upon socially just school leadership practices in New Zealand to be far more thoroughly explored.
根据国际趋势,以及来自新西兰、英国和美国的研究证据,在接下来的几年里,有特殊教育需要的学生(SEN)在新西兰学校入学的人数很可能会呈指数级增长。此外,特殊需要的面貌正在发生变化,以至于“特殊需要”一词的含义似乎非常有争议,而且有些难以捉摸。尽管国际文献毫无疑问地使用了“特殊需要”一词,但现在被认为是特殊需要的东西似乎要复杂得多。Graham-Matheson (2012a)、Richards(2012)和Hall(1997)的研究表明,“特殊需要”一词会导致先入之见,往往会忽视语境问题。这可能会加剧有特殊教育需要的学生的学习困难,因为它倾向于支持不适当的领导实践,无效的教学技术,以及在这些特殊学生的背景下资源不足。虽然教育被认为是一项道德事业,但特殊教育领域可以说充满了伦理困境和道德问题,特别是当教育工作者被要求为残疾儿童辩护时,这些儿童往往是学校社区中的少数群体(Fiedler & VanHaren, 2009;Hallett & Hallett, 2012)。本文详细阐述了这些观点,以突出这一问题的严重性,因此,强调需要对新西兰社会公正的学校领导实践的影响进行更彻底的探索。

Dialogue as socially just communication 对话是一种社会性的交流
Pub Date : 2015-01-01 DOI: 10.21307/JELPP-2015-005
Jeremy Kedian
Abstract Todays school leaders seemingly face an ever-increasing array of competing demands and challenges. They are expected to be innovative, transformational and expert while, at the same time, sharing many of the leadership processes, acting in ways that are ethical and socially just, and being highly consultative (Senge, 1994; Stoll, Fink, & Earl, 2003; West-Burnham & Coates, 2006). Together, these expectations place the building of effective interpersonal relationships at the heart of leadership and, thereby, raise the primacy of pervasive communication as an essential aspect of leadership. Thus, this article focuses on dialogue as a form of communication befitting the requirements of contemporary school leadership. It argues that dialogue contributes to a form of communal professionalism in which there is a reduction in barriers between school principals, other leaders, teaching staff, parents in schools, and students. It is in this respect, it is argued, that dialogue is able to automatically promote school leadership practices that effectively address equality and social justice concerns.
当今的学校领导似乎面临着越来越多的竞争需求和挑战。期望他们创新、变革和专业,同时分享许多领导过程,以合乎道德和社会公正的方式行事,并具有高度的咨商性(Senge, 1994;斯托尔,芬克,厄尔,2003;West-Burnham & Coates, 2006)。总之,这些期望将建立有效的人际关系置于领导的核心,从而提高了无处不在的沟通作为领导的一个重要方面的首要地位。因此,本文关注对话作为一种适合当代学校领导要求的沟通形式。它认为,对话有助于形成一种社区专业主义,减少校长、其他领导、教职员工、学校家长和学生之间的障碍。有人认为,正是在这方面,对话能够自动促进有效解决平等和社会正义问题的学校领导实践。

They are expected to be innovative, transformational and expert while, at the same time, sharing many of the leadership processes, acting in ways that are ethical and socially just, and being highly consultative (Senge, 1994; Stoll, Fink, & Earl, 2003; West-Burnham & Coates, 2006). Together, these expectations place the building of effective interpersonal relationships at the heart of leadership and, thereby, raise the primacy of pervasive communication as an essential aspect of leadership. Thus, this article focuses on dialogue as a form of communication befitting the requirements of contemporary school leadership.

When the walls have fallen: Socially just leadership in post-traumatic times 当围墙倒塌:创伤后时代的社会公正领导

Abstract Although educational researchers and theorists accept that there is a degree of ambiguity and uncertainty endemic to organizational life, school leaders in democratic countries tend to address issues through the use of strategies structured to take place within a stable environment. However, many would argue that such stability is a false perception. Traumatic events can occur at any time and at any place. Every country might one day find itself having to cope with the after-effects of colonialism, conquest, conflict or catastrophe. This article describes the impact of traumatic events upon the decision-making processes of school leaders. Specifically, it describes the ways in which personal value systems influence how school leaders attend to appropriate, diligent and socially just responsibilities following a traumatic event. The purpose of this article is to identify and examine possible future strategies for a socially just school leader when confronted with an unanticipated and demanding environment.
虽然教育研究人员和理论家承认组织生活中存在一定程度的模糊性和不确定性,但民主国家的学校领导倾向于通过使用在稳定环境中进行的策略来解决问题。然而,许多人认为这种稳定是一种错误的看法。创伤性事件可以在任何时间、任何地点发生。也许有一天,每个国家都会发现自己不得不应对殖民主义、征服、冲突或灾难的后遗症。本文描述了创伤性事件对学校领导决策过程的影响。具体来说,它描述了个人价值体系如何影响学校领导在创伤事件后如何承担适当、勤奋和社会公正的责任。这篇文章的目的是确定和检查一个社会公正的学校领导在面对一个意想不到的和苛刻的环境时可能的未来策略。
