This book explores the complex landscape of technology and education, particularly on how students learn, and educators teach. It uncovers effective approaches to harness technology's potential while safeguarding the core values of education.
The contributors in this volume are educational leaders engaged in education policy, practice, and research. In each chapter they focus on the integration of artificial intelligence, online learning, and distance education prompted by global events like the COVID-19 pandemic, and provide insights, strategies, and case studies to help readers navigate this dynamic landscape effectively. The chapters offer clarity to complex issues and offer evidence-informed practices for shaping technology integration and digital leadership in the years ahead.
The book will be of relevance to educational leaders, scholars, policymakers, and educators who are preparing for a future shaped by rapid technological change. It can also be a supplementary reading to those interested in staying abreast of the evolving educational landscape or enhancing their understanding of technology and digital leadership's role in shaping the future of learning.
“This book offers remarkable, evidence-based insights for school leaders in a wide range of contexts about how to make productive use of multiple technologies for improving their students’ educational experiences and their own organizational management.”
Professor Kenneth Leithwood, University of Toronto, Canada
“Finally, a book that shows how technology leadership is really about instructional leadership! Drawing on years of research and fieldwork, the authors offer a practical and conceptual roadmap for school leaders who want to build equitable, sustainable systems for technology-rich learning. This is the rare book that treats technology not as a trend or a threat, but as a powerful set of tools with guidance for how leaders can improve teaching and learning in schools.”
Professor Richard Halverson, University of Wisconsin-Madison, United States.
“Adams and Gurr have compiled in this volume an eclectic and utterly fascinating collection of global perspectives on school leadership and technology. This book is both wide-ranging and deep. Whether you're interested in artificial intelligence, online learning, digital equity, or deeper learning, I guarantee that you'll find multiple chapters that stretch your thinking about education and learning technologies. As we bravely face the disruptions that digital tools are wreaking on our schools and other human systems, this edited volume is an important call to action that will find a primary place on your leadership shelf.”
