About this book
Today's educational system is frozen in time, stuck in traditions of the past. Transforming Ice Age Schools: A Practical Guide for School Leaders will resonate with educational leaders, especially site principals, who are looking to transform their schools to reflect the educational world needed for today. Unlike the many theoretical books on this topic, this book offers insights about the discreet steps leaders might take to transform learning. A metaphor of a glacier is carried throughout the book to provide guiding principles of how to chip away at the mammoth educational system we have inherited and prepare students to be globally competent.
