11 Acknowledgments The author wishes to acknowledge all those colleagues and friends who have contributed in one way or another to the writing of this book. I have learned from critical friends in my own institution; from the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (CPED) consortium members; and from participants at conferences both in the United States and the United Kingdom. Specifically, I would like to thank Dr. David Imig and Dr. Jill Alexa Perry, codirectors, CPED, for their continued vision and support as higher education institutions domestically and internationally work to implement innovative professional practice education doctorates. Scarlet Neath at Palgrave Macmillan provided expertise regarding the book s organization and formatting and graduate student, Brendan Richard, assisted with editing.

13 Foreword Dean Fayneese Miller We view the doctorate as a degree that exists at the junction of the intellectual and moral. The Ph.D. is expected to serve as a steward of her discipline, dedicated to the integrity of its work in the generation, critique, transformation, transmission, and use of its knowledge. Lee S. Shulman In 2006, Chris M. Golde and George E. Walker edited a book entitled Envisioning the Future of Doctoral Education: Preparing Stewards of the Discipline. The authors of the chapters represented the following disciplines: chemistry, neuroscience, mathematics, English, education, and history. Each author was asked a series of questions including, How ought PhD s be educated and prepared and If you could start de novo, what would be the best way to structure doctoral education in your field to prepare stewards of the discipline? (p. 9). In the two education chapters, one by Valerie Richards and the other by David Berliner, the focus is on what should or possibly could happen in doctoral education programs. While one might argue that the questions raised in the 2006 volume are similar to those raised by Valerie A. Storey in the Redesigning Professional Education Doctorates edited volume, to do so would lead one to miss the nuanced way in which Storey and Richard ask the questions. Instead of focusing on the what if, Storey, along with the chapter writers, use work they have done or are doing as part of their participation in the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (CPED) initiative to illustrate the importance of a critical friendship framework for both rethinking how candidates in education professional doctorate programs are prepared and, second, implementing the proposed changes.

14 xiv FOREWORD Central components in the critical friendship concept for CPED institutions are constructive critique, reflection, and support. At each of the higher education institutions represented in the volume and part of the CPED initiative, faculty engaged in a systematic and constructive critique of their program, and asked, How are we doing preparing professionals who will engage in the practice of education or do research on or about the practice of education? What needs to be in place to ensure that candidates in education doctoral programs are engaged in and practice innovative practice? What structure or mechanism should be in place to support candidates as they prepare for leadership roles in K-12 or higher education? Many questions are asked and several examples are presented as to how some higher education institutions are attempting to address the myriad of challenges that have arisen as well generating new questions yet to be answered. Storey s book is the first look at what higher education could do to better prepare leaders in K-12 and beyond. Instead of attempting to replicate theoretical or empirical-oriented research PhD programs, the focus is on how we improve programs geared toward those who will engage in the practice of education. Shulman, as stated in the earlier quote, sees those with doctorates as serving as stewards. He has proposed that stewards are those who are expected to ensure that programs of education maintain quality and those prepared to work in education have integrity. Some have interpreted this to mean that the faculty and candidates in education be scholars who actively work to generate new knowledge and transform what they know through scholarly writings, teaching, and the application of the knowledge. The authors in this book epitomize what Shulman expected of those in higher education who are preparing leaders in education. They are stewards who are acting as Critical Friends in the development, restructuring, and implementation of high quality professional doctoral programs in education. Those who they prepare to engage in the practice of education are also stewards in that they too are expected to generate new knowledge and use that knowledge to improve leadership in education or innovations in curriculum and instruction. As with the notion of stewardship, I believe the notion of Critical Friends encompasses two roles one that establishes the roles and skills needed to innovate, to generate new knowledge, to serve; and, two, one that is grounded in notions of moral purpose and principles. Although many of the chapter authors focus on the support nature

15 FOREWORD xv explicit in the notion of Critical Friend, a moral component is implicit in much of what is discussed. As many of the CPED institutions engaged in the work necessary to transform their programs, they did so with a belief that they have a moral obligation to provide a quality educational experience for those whose job it will be to educate our nation s future leaders and workers to prepare those who will become intimately involved in the inner workings of a civil society by virtue of their citizenry. The work to transform programs is hard, especially when there are those who prefer to view and act as though the preparation for work for those who will practice and those who will serve as university-based scholars should be the same. What should be the same are the principles they will be expected to uphold, not the roles they will hold or the expectations associated with the roles. Because the roles and the settings are different, the way we prepare them should be different, in some ways, from a typical PhD program. CPED, by virtue of the fact that there is more than one cohort of colleges of education, serves as the place for the Critical Friends network. It is through CPED that faculty and administrators engaged in the work to rethink and restructure their doctoral programs can receive critiques of and feedback about their plans. Information is shared, qualitative databases built, and new knowledge generated about professional doctoral programs. And, programs are engaging in critical reflection and receiving objective feedback from those involved in similar work in colleges of education. The work itself, in my opinion, suggests a moral responsibility felt by those in colleges of education that extends far beyond the ivy leaden walls of higher education. Storey proposes that the Critical Friends model is far broader, and possibly more appropriate, than mentoring, when involved in rethinking academic programs in higher education. The Critical Friends model is similar to what researchers and scholars do as they begin the work on a new article or book the work is provided to a mentor or colleagues, feedback is solicited, and then shared with others across the profession. The Critical Friend is a trusted colleague who provides objective feedback, identifies challenges and opportunities, and raises more questions questions that should strengthen what one proposes to do or sharpen one s thinking. A mentor is one aspect of the Critical Friends model as it is for the scholar who looks for guidance from a more experienced colleague. The Critical Friend offers both intellectual and moral support.

16 xvi FOREWORD The culture of higher education is undergoing major changes. It is opportune that colleges of education have begun to rethink its various academic programs, especially its professional practice doctorate, and ask whether or not they are as relevant today as yesterday. Have we held on to a model of the doctorate that is no longer, if it ever was, all encompassing? Are we doing the right thing in the way we prepare those who will do the hard work of educating our children and youth? Are we being morally responsible to those who pay or have their employers pay the higher education bill by making sure they are ready to do the work that is necessary? It is clear from the chapters in this book that the authors feel a moral obligation to continue to improve upon their programs and prepare K-12 administrators who are ready and able to do the work necessary, to think critically, encourage innovation, and provide support to colleagues at the same time. The redesign of professional education doctorate programs, using the Critical Friends model, is reminiscent of the words of Virginia Gildersleeve, a past dean at Barnard College. She said, The ability to think straight, some knowledge of the past, some vision of the future, some skill to do useful service, some urge to fit that service into the well-being of the community these are the most vital things education must try to produce (Gildersleeve, 1959, p. 422). This, I believe, is what those involved with CPED hope to accomplish and what the Critical Friends model, ultimately, is all about. References Gildersleeve, V. (1959).
