Welcome!

Welcome to the blog of Zaq Roberts, Associate Head of School at The Berkeley School in Berkeley, CA. I blog about a wide variety of topics, from classroom moments I witness, to administrative events and conversations, to the educational blogs, videos, and books I am reading and watching, and how they are influencing my thinking. I hope this eclectic approach will give you insight into the many ways that I am engaging in advancing the school and strengthening our program, and I welcome your thoughts and comments!

This blog takes its name from a quotation by Archimedes that reads "Give me a lever long enough, and I can move the world." The TBS mission speaks directly to the need to engage a changing world, while many of the experiences in our program focus on the development of students' agency and authority. TBS is the lever by which we all - administration, faculty, students, and parents - can together move the world to be more humane, compassionate, and responsive. To borrow an important Montessori phrase, it is our way to remake the world.

Thinking and Linking about Leadership #2

Back in January I put up a post on some articles about leadership that I had recently read. As I wrote then, reading about leadership is one of the ways that I push myself to remain reflective about my leadership practice. So, here's another entry of leadership-related articles I've read in the last two months. Some of these are specifically related to educational administration, some are presented as lists of things to do or keep in mind as leaders, some are interviews with leaders in various fields, and some are about leadership theory. Enjoy your grazing!
