Abstract

In this essay, the authors argue that by using perspectives such as critical posthumanism to inform teacher preparation, educators can develop leaders in schools and beyond who can be a central part of an effort to think and live differently in a deeply polarized, “post-truth” era. They present four examples that describe specific pedagogies and practices that aim to prepare critical leaders with complex, connected mindsets to create positive change in schools and societies.
