Learning for Leading: Reflecting on Innovative Practices and Partnerships

The conference theme for this year is Leading for Learning: Reflecting on Innovative Practices and Partnerships. Acknowledging that the cultural demands for increased accountability and standards have oftentimes led to the establishment of prescriptive educational policies and practices, the planners for this conference challenge all members of the UCEA community to explore alternatives of leading that would move us beyond a focus on increased achievement scores to include “the artistry of teaching and leading.” In this challenge, we are not called to lessen our demands for high academic achievement; rather, we are encouraged to seek ways to imagine new policies, practices,and partnerships that would integrate the equally important demand for high acadmeic achievement, equity and social justice.
