There are three types of teacherpreneurs: classroom, business, and consultant teacherpreneurs. Classroom teacherpreneurs inspire and motivate students to be the best they can be using outside resources, business teacherpreneurs teach students to become entrepreneurs, and consultant teacherpreneurs are usually former teachers who own a consulting business and go into schools to assist with improving academics. Each plays an important and different role within the educational system in the United States and one without the other would not assist students in gaining academic success. These individuals are the mainstay of educational systems, and without them, school systems would fail. Enhancing Teaching and Leadership Initiatives With Teacherpreneurs: Emerging Research and Opportunities is a critical scholarly resource that explores the characteristics and models of a teacherpreneur, their advantages and disadvantages, and examines how they can be used by current classroom teachers and school administrators to improve and enhance the teaching profession. Featuring a wide range of topics such as curriculum design, student outcomes, and ethics, this book is essential for teachers, educational consultants, school administrators, academicians, researchers, and students.

Today, globalization, advances in technology, greater access to information, and communication via social networks generate an explosion of knowledge and cause the working world to experience rapid change based on knowledge and continuous learning. The challenge for universities is to have a curriculum that prepares students for this digital world, but many characteristics of the school curriculum have been unchanged for decades. Consequently, student experiences can be very different from the experiences required by the labor market. In a learning environment, the desired results will not be achieved if several essential elements are not considered in the instructional teaching process, including learning style, age, and maturity level. Learning Styles and Strategies for Management Students is a critical scholarly resource that provides essential research on the growing recognition of the critical role of education through concepts and principles of styles and strategies of learning. Additionally, it explores key developments in the methodologies, strategies, and learning styles of students, mainly in management studies. Featuring an array of topics such as digital education, sustainability, and management, this book is ideal for academicians, researchers, administrators, curriculum designers, policymakers, practitioners, and students.

Now more than ever, the collaboration of researchers and practitioners from both PreK-12 and higher education in partnership and in research is imperative for solving problems in teaching and learning and for instituting fundamental change in education. There is growing empirical work on educational change and improvement in school-university partnership settings that should be explored. This applied research and research design impacts the initiation and institution of change in partnership settings. Thus, the role of research is an essential lever for reform. Practical perspectives are necessary to share for shaping a future in partnerships and to promote collaborative action and inquiry in school-university and professional development partnership settings. This includes changes in the partnerships’ classroom teaching, in school and college policies, student outcomes, course content, and in partnerships’ teacher education programs. Change and Improvement in School-University Partnership Settings: Emerging Research and Opportunities spotlights the types of research, research designs, and exemplar studies that were successful in producing changes and improvements in the longitudinal partnerships the author founded and directed. The chapters reveal what worked and why it worked along with brief descriptions of the exemplar studies that served as catalysts for change. In addition, a brief history of the partnership movement in America is given along with an overview of the current landscape of the different types of education partnerships prevalent today and their key research features. This book is ideal for researchers, scholars, teacher-researchers, change agents, professors, teacher educators, students, and graduate fellows interested in conducting practical and effective applied research for change and improvement in school-university partnership settings.

We need a bold new brand of teacher leadership that will create opportunities for teachers to practice, share, and grow their knowledge and expertise. This book is about "teacherpreneurs"—highly accomplished classroom teachers who blur the lines of distinction between those who teach in schools and those who lead them. These teacherpreneurs embody the concept that teachers can teach as well as lead the transformation of teaching and learning. It’s about empowering expert teachers who can buoy the image of teaching and enforce standards among their ranks while all along making sure that their colleagues as well as education policymakers and the public know what works best for students. The book follows a small group of teacherpreneurs in their first year. We join their journey toward becoming teacher leaders whose work is not defined by administrative fiat, but by their knowledge of students and drive to influence policies that allow them and their colleagues to teach more effectively. The authors trace the teacherpreneurs' steps—and their own—in the effort to determine what it means to define and execute the concept of "teacherpreneurism" in the face of tough demands and resistant organizational structures.
