Notes
This
mixed
methods
study
used
a
sequential
explanatory
design
to
examine
distributed
leadership
practice
within
and
across
schools
in a
small
,
suburban
school
district
. The
study
began
with a
survey
designed
to
measure
readiness
for
leadership
activity
,
followed
by
artifact
review
,
focus
groups
,
interviews
, and
observations
.
Guided
by
distributed
leadership
frameworks
and
activity
theory
, the
study
describes
eight
activity
systems
at the
school
and/or
district
level
,
categorizing
them by
distributed
leadership
type
. The
study
presents
a
normative
view
of
distributed
leadership
practice
by
describing
key
activity
systems
aimed
at
improving
instruction
within
and
across
schools
,
which
appear
to have
improved
student
achievement
as
demonstrated
by
standardized
test
score
trends
.
Findings
suggest
that the
district's
strategic
plan
and the
superintendent's
theory
of
action
play
significant
roles
in
focusing
and
guiding
the
work
of the
activity
systems
within
and
across
schools
in the
district
and
may
be the
basis
of
sustainable
change
.
