Description:

The future of higher education depends on leaders' dedication to making big changes in institutional practices and structures. A New Way: Introducing Higher Education to Professional Learning Communities at Work acts as a guide for implementing professional learning community (PLC) practices in colleges and universities. Authors Robert Eaker and Debra Sells detail the great promise the PLC model has for reshaping how leaders think, work, and more importantly how well students succeed. Practical and based in research, the PLC model carries significant potential for improving results in higher education.
