EDL 601 Instructional Leadership

The primary focus of this course is instructional leadership as a collaborative practice of systemic improvement: the work of continuous inquiry, action and reflection enacted by distributed leadership trams, with the goal of improvement in the interdependent systems that support students’ academic success. Students will create instructional plans, explore professional development methods, generate a focus on student and professional learning in the school, identify faculty instructional proficiency needs, including standards-based content, research-based pedagogy, data analysis for instructional planning and improvement, and the use of instructional technology. Students will implement professional learning that enables faculty to deliver differentiated instruction and learn to engage faculty in effective individual and collaborative professional learning.
