Contents Introduction -- Transformation-or steady state improvement? -- Systems-interdependent complexity, not complicated machines -- Transformational system leaders: what do we know? -- The new education eco-system: can we assure the public interest?
Summary Valerie Hannon, a leading international education consultant, argues that the growing complexity and interdependence of modern societies, combined with the pervasiveness of digital technologies, has led to a preoccupation with the nature of systems and what is entailed in innovating at system level. The author argues that a similar challenge now confronts the education systems in developed countries and may offer opportunity to countries where education systems are still evolving. This leads her to an examination of the question: 'Can transformational systemic innovation in education be led?' Or is it an emergent, disruptive and unpredictable phenomenon? Her exploration focuses particularly on issues relating to transformation, systems, transformational System Leaders and the new education ecosystem. - CSE website
