Still Learning: Strengthening Professional and Organizational Capacity
Allison Rodman
ASCD
For years, schools have worked to ensure that students develop their social-emotional learning skills, which research shows can benefit not only students' well-being, but also their academic achievement. Until now, however, developing these skills in adults has not received the same emphasis in schools, despite evidence that they are just as helpful for advancing professional practice. With "Still Learning: Strengthening Professional and Organizational Capacity," educator and author Allison Rodman, founder of the Learning Loop, seeks to correct this oversight so that teachers, administrators, and other school leaders can thrive both individually and collectively. Rodman offers a comprehensive "Framework for Educator Capacity Building" that sequences, defines, and outlines key concepts and strategies in five disciplines: attunement, alignment, perspective, collective efficacy, and organizational learning. In this essential resource, you will find (1) Protocols, checklists, reflection exercises, and myriad other practical tools for supporting educators' social-emotional development and strengthening professional and organizational capacity; (2) Data and examples from decades of research into the benefits of and best practices related to capacity building; (3) Lessons and insights from real-life educators; and (4) Recommended resources for further exploration. You will also be able to access editable PDF versions of many of the tools and resources within the book to support and enhance your reflection, learning, and action planning. The evidence is clear: Social-emotional development is a must not just for students, but for educators, organizations, and systems as well. "Still Learning" has everything you need to ensure that the adults in your school or district implement and sustain healthy practices to benefit themselves, their colleagues, and their students.
