Latino Educational Leadership is a critical book for pre-service and in-service Latino leaders. The book serves as a call to action for Latinx leaders in K-12 and higher education pipeline to advocate, empower, and transform Latinx experiences throughout the P-20 pipeline. The collection of essays in this book draw upon Latino-oriented methodologies and epistemologies to present testimonios, case studies, and theoretical models for building the Latino educational leadership pipeline. My review of this book speaks to its criticality for current and future leaders with respect to the historically marginalized Latino community.

High rates of academic remediation among college students suggest that many states have still not aligned high school and college curricular standards and assessments to ensure college readiness. One structure created by many states that is designed to improve this alignment is the P–20 Council. To understand why the lack of alignment persists despite the creation of this, and other, structures, this article draws on data collected through case studies of P–20 councils in ten states to explore these councils’ origins, implementation, and outcomes. Analyses pay particular attention to the ways that state leaders contribute to these stages of the policy process. The analyses also point to situational characteristics that have limited the effects of P–20 councils on P–20 policy reform.

Educational leaders are faced with multiple ethical decisions every day. This article presents the Values–Issue–Action (VIA) Model as a tool for developing ethical decisions in K-12 schools. The model is presented with three scenarios from K-12 education to practice using the model into practice. The model can be used by current school leaders and those in higher education programs developing future K-12 leaders. The model can also be used in school and district professional development to have leaders examine ethical dilemmas they face daily.

Education Business

Not everyone who has invested in education has gone bust. This chapter includes shorter case studies to demonstrate how applying traditional strategic analysis to the structure of educational markets reveals a path to potential success across a wide range of models – from digital to traditional, from products to services and from K-12 to higher education. The structure and source of competitive advantage is not fundamentally different for educational endeavors. But applying these principles to players across the educational eco-system requires a deep appreciation of the nuances inherent in its highly anachronistic industry structures. Showing how these winners were able to navigate the treacherous shores of educational investing both provides a useful contrast to the case studies of the previous chapters and lays the groundwork for the key lessons outlined in the final chapter.

This chapter offers instructors in higher education some basic tools and elements of course design for interreligious encounter in the undergraduate classroom. Aiming at practice over theory, it provides practical suggestions for fostering interreligious understanding from the first day of class through the end of the semester. These suggestions include the use of guest speakers, interdisciplinary case studies, in-class reflections, and interreligious community engagement (i.e., “service learning”), among others. Further, it provides a concise bibliography of basic introductory texts for both students and instructors in the areas of comparative theology, theologies of religions and religious pluralisms, and interreligious studies and dialogue.

This chapter explores the real-life operation of six higher education systems that align with the theoretical models identified in Chapter 2. Three states follow a largely market-based approach: Chile, England, and the United States. Three states follow a largely human rights-based approach: Finland, Iceland, and Sweden. The chapter describes each system in terms of how it aligns with the particular model before evaluating the system in relation to the signs and measures of successful higher education systems identified in Chapter 3. This chapter provides conclusions as to the relative likelihood of each approach facilitating the achievement of higher education teaching and learning purposes.
