Recenzii

Too many educational organizations as well as elected officials view educational reform through the lens of: increase focus, work harder, and reward the best who do so. This paradigm doesn't work or, at best, doesn't work on the scale that is necessary. We MUST change from the lens of reform to lens of transformation. Francis M. Duffy agues for a revolution-a revolution of paradigm shifts to create educational systems for the twenty-first-century global, interdependent environment in which we will either thrive or die. Duffy builds on his prior writings of transformational change and about leaders with courage, passion, and vision to create a framework to revolutionize education. The question before us all is 'Will we act?'
Francis M. Duffy is one of the nation's leading educators when it comes to the need for transformation in education. His newest book continues the tradition of advocating for reform in a holistic, realistic, and practical way and should be required reading of anyone concerned with the status of K-12 education in the United States today. Of special note is Duffy's focus on long-term change as opposed to simple slogans and easy answers, which we hear from some regarding education. This is a book well worth reading!
Dream! Create! Sustain! Mastering the Art and Science of Transforming School Systems would be an excellent resource for a think tank charged with the design and overhaul of the American educational system.
