Using Improvement Science to (Re)design Leadership Preparation: Exploring Curriculum Change across Five University Programs
Journal of Research on Leadership Education, v16 n4 p339-359 Dec 2021
In this article, we describe the challenges faced by a network of universities embarking on program improvement to navigate the inclusion of powerful learning experiences (PLEs) in existing curriculum. We find that embedding PLEs requires more than structural adjustments to existing curriculum and that the tools we have been using to consider such changes may need refining. Our findings suggest that curriculum changes necessitate new ways of working together and of structuring time within faculty work; yet, many faculty members are not prepared to make such adjustments and are not provided the types of resources that are necessary for success.
