Marsha Modeste, Penn State

In 20 14, the Danish Ministry of Education launched a set of policy reforms wi th the overarching aim of improving the quality of its public schools. T hrough the reforms, the Ministry sought to augment external legitimacy f rom a range of communities; including, international organizations like the OECD, and Danish parents. While specific to the Danish context, thes e reforms are not unlike the education reforms other nations, particular ly Western nations like the US, have implemented in recent years. Furthe rmore, the Ministry has coupled these reforms with changing expectations for the focus and nature of the work that school leaders, teachers, p&a elig;dagogs, and other staff take up in Danish primary and lower seconda ry schools.

In this talk, Modeste will present some preliminary fi ndings on the differences and similarities between Denmark and the US in the area of teacher and staff leadership using the Comprehensive Assess ment of Leadership for Learning (CALL), an online formative assessment a nd multi-rater evaluation of leadership practices distributed in schools . This analysis takes a comparative approach and, through factor analysi s, examines the relationship between teacher and staff leadership practi ce and the professional learning occurring within and across Danish and US schools.
