学习的领导: 理解教育领导的新范式
曾 艳 黎万红 卢乃桂
摘要:学习从来就是教育领导的核心目标。但教育领导脱胎于一般领导理论,在探寻教育领导效果机制,即“学习 — 领导”关系的过程中,由于缺乏对教育特质的关怀而饱受批评。当前全球化和知识社会的兴起,对学习产生了新的理解与要求,进而影响了教育领域中对领导的本质及其在推进学习方面扮演角色的理解。这一变化是理解教育领导的范式变迁,并对未来的教育领导研究产生深刻影响,表现为将广泛分布的学习与领导视为教育社群的本质特征;学习与领导密不可分,学习者即领导者,领导者即学习者; 将关注点从学生学习扩展至整个教育社群的学习,从校长领导扩展至整个教育社群的领导。

总结:
一、兴起的原因::对“学习 —领导”探究的延续与更新
(一)学习的范式转换要求教育领导更新实践方式
(二)研究思路与方法的缺憾要求教育领导更新探究方法
二、“学习的领导”: 内涵与特点
(一)“学习的领导”之内涵
首先,意义是“学习的领导”的核心,“学习的领导”是促成意义交往与共识的活动。第二,教育领导的广泛分布性基于学习的分布性和社会性。第三,学习和领导具有不可分割的关系,学习者即为领导者,领导者即为学习者。
(二)“学习的领导”之特点
三、“学习的领导”: 研究进展与展望
(一)研究现状
1.“学习的领导”五原则
2.领导能量矩阵模型
3.新的研究焦点
(二)研究展望
四、对中国教育领导研究与实践的启示
“学习的领导”最大的贡献在于启发人们去思考教育领导的本质及其探究方式。由于这一领导理论将促进意义交往与建构的学习视为领导的核心目标,因而在教育实践中,领导的机会俯拾皆是;同时,由于意义建构与交往有赖于情境,因此领导实践将呈现丰富复杂的样态,难以一言以蔽,需要从事教育领导实践和研究的人员从独特的情境脉络中去理解学习与领导的本土意义,寻找适合的途径与策略。
Leadership for learning: A new paradigm to understand educational leadership
Zheng Yan, Li Wanhong, Lu Naigui
Abstract: Educational leadership should have taken learning as its center and goal, and taken the learning-leading relationship as its core inquiry. However, the educational leadership study derived from the general leadership study, which provoked a lot of criticism of being less educative concerned. The rise of globalization and knowledge society brings new understanding of learning, which fosters a new insight of educational leadership about its nature and function in terms of learning promotion. This is a new paradigm to understand educational leadership, and will deeply influence the research in this area. The new educational leadership takes broadly distributed learning and leadership as the nature of educative community. Learning and leadership are closely inter-wound, in which every learner is a leader, and every leader is a learner. Educational leadership should extend its understanding of leaning from students learning to the learning of every member of the community, and that of leadership from principal leadership to the leadership capacity of the whole community.
