Bringing the science of team training to school-based teams
This dissertation investigates how relational trust manifests within schools that have recently enacted the distributed leadership framework, a program implementation by the Penn Center for Educational Leadership. First, the dissertation highlights research that connects the distributed leadership and relational trust frameworks in the task of identifying specific behavioral anchors which give rise to trust considerations across distributed leadership team members in particular schools.

Innovation, Implementation Science, and Data-Based Decision Making: Components of Successful Reform
Schools are often expected to implement innovative instructional programs. Most often these initiatives fail because what we know from implementation science is not considered as part of implementing the initiative. This chapter reviews the contributions implementation science can make for improving outcomes for students.

Seeking the Magic Metric: Using Evidence to Identify and Track School System Progress
This paper discusses the search for a “magic metric” in education: an index/number that would be generally accepted as the most efficient descriptor of school’s performance in a district.
