Experiencing Teacher Leadership
«The movement of teachers into positions of teacher leadership, while more common than one might expect, is still not a fully understood phenomenon, nor are there many practical guides for either teachers or administrators to help direct them. Enter Dr. Michael Coquyt’s Experiencing Teacher Leadership, a book which makes accessible a roadmap of sorts for the transition to teacher leadership. Highlighting the voices of teachers who have navigated this move, Dr. Coquyt offers a much needed and user-friendly contribution to those interested in teacher leadership, both in K-12 settings as well as in teacher education programs.»

«In Experiencing Teacher Leadership, Dr. Michael Coquyt draws upon his experience as a teacher, administrator, and university professor to offer a pragmatic and practical application of research on emerging teacher leadership. The accessible presentation of this research grounded in the stories of current practitioners provides a needed addition to graduate courses on educational leadership and teacher education, but also within district-wide book studies and professional development.»

«As the demands on PK-12 education grow, successful and meaningful change can no longer be initiated and achieved only through a formal leader. To continuously improve, districts must empower and develop the leadership skills in their teachers. Only through the purposeful development of teacher leaders can districts maximize their ability to help every learner reach their full potential. As a professor for the Teacher Leadership Academy offered through North Dakota State University, I have witnessed firsthand the impact the purposeful focus on developing these skills can have on the transformation of a district. In Experiencing Teacher Leadership, Dr. Coquyt provide background information, ideas and resources for administrators and teachers to utilize for enhancing and growing teacher leadership. The Teacher Leader Model Standards are utilized in a format that is engaging, reflective and will provide a template for starting the conversation about the development of teacher leaders for both K-12 settings and higher education.»
