EDLDRS 757 Leadership & Public Engagement


This course addresses the intersection between two complex and well-researched areas of interest. As a leadership course, this course will build on the knowledge, dispositions and skills offered through the two leadership workshops. As a course in public engagement for educational leaders, this course will focus on collaboration with parents, students and private, public and non-profit community partners with the understanding that course participants might represent any one of these three sectors. Course models for study include community schools, professional development schools, large-scale interorganizational urban partnerships for education and philanthropy-driven projects. A variety of theoretical perspectives introduce students to neoliberalism, regime theory, conflicting motivations for interorganizational collaboration, and civic engagement with an emphasis on social justice.
