Abstract
There are few examples of teacher and leadership development programs that intentionally connect to place and local problems as part of its program design and purpose. This symposium presents the Carnegie Foundation’s Improvement Leadership Education and Development (iLEAD) initiative. Representing a mix of private and public universities and urban and rural districts across ten states, iLEAD is a network of 11 research-practice preparation partnerships that use improvement science and Networked Improvement Communities to build leadership capacity and address local and persistent problems of practice. iLEAD advances a collaborative, place-based, and problem-focused approach to build improvement capability and promote educational opportunity. This session highlights iLEAD’s shared working theory and progress indicators, and the key accomplishments, progress, and challenges of eight partnerships.
