"Catalyzing Change in Elementary and Early Childhood Mathematics presents four key recommendations to guide conversations that take a critical look at current mathematics programs in order to identify practices, policies, and instructional approaches that hinder any child from becoming confident and capable mathematics learners. The book uses classroom vignettes and student work to illustrate how the eight effective mathematics teaching practices form a framework for equitable instruction and to discuss the teaching of important mathematics topics in number and operations, early algebra, geometry, and data"--

"Catalyzing Change in Middle School Mathematics calls for all stakeholders involved in the teaching of mathematics to middle school students to critically examine the following: The identity and agency of students in middle school by being developmentally responsive while also creating and supporting a learning environment that takes into account each and every student's unique background, experience, cultural perspectives, traditions, and knowledge The inequitable structures in middle school mathematics, such as student tracking and ability grouping as well as teacher tracking, and eliminating those structures that impede students' agency and identity as capable learners and doers of mathematics Mathematics instructional practices that are equitable and attend to students as developing young adolescents, ensuring that each and every student has access to a high-quality mathematics program. How middle schools should build from a strong foundation of mathematics developed in the elementary grades, deeply engage students in the important mathematical ideas of the middle grades, and prepare students for their continued mathematics journey in high school and beyond"--

How do corporations achieve change? In the first analytic book about Hewlett-Packard, Deone Zell also offers an ethnography of corporate redesign, documenting Hewlett-Packard's radical reorganization of both a manufacturing and a research division. Because she writes from within the process as it unfolds, Zell is able to demonstrate how the inclusion of employees in every step of redesign can inspire the knowledge and commitment to transform an organization. Hewlett-Packard is among a growing number of companies in the United States exploring what is called sociotechnical systems (STS) redesign. As competitive pressures have grown, interest in STS has increased because it has the potential to catalyze comprehensive organizational change and avoid the pitfalls of a piecemeal or small-scale approach. STS works from the ground up, involving front-line employees in analysis and redesign of the entire organization and in explicit examination of an organization's culture. In Hewlett-Packard's California Personal Computer Division, production operators worked alongside managers to redesign their printed circuit assembly line into self-managing teams of employees. In the Santa Clara Division, a very different workforce of engineers, initially unwilling to standardize their creativity, had to develop commercial applications and become more responsive to customers in order to survive. On the basis of Hewlett-Packard's success, Zell concludes that, with top-level support and a high investment of resources at the outset, redesign can inspire relatively rapid change, especially suitable for organizations in fast-paced environments. As one H-P manager commented, "Empowerment is no longer a nice thing to do. It is now a business imperative."

Here’s how to make purposeful system change happen! The world faces a multitude of crises that demand transformative changes in how we live and do business. Yet a core question is...how to make purposeful transformation happen? Catalyzing Transformation shows the way through: Innovative organizing processes that anyone can use to catalyze purposeful whole system transformational change for a better world. How transformation catalysts work to organize purposeful, self-aware transformation systems that can tackle complex systemic challenges. Three processes—connecting (seeing, understanding, and making sense of the system), cohering (co-creatively developing shared goals and action plans), and amplifying (implementing, evaluating, and elaborating effective transformative action). Design guidelines for leaders stewarding change efforts in context-appropriate ways. Whether you catalyze social changer, responsible businesses, activists, policymakers, or students of change, Catalyzing Transformation can help!
