Welcome to the homepage of Dr. Jeffrey S. Brooks, Professor of Educational Leadership in the Faculty of Education at Monash University. 

I conduct research using a variety of interdisciplinary conceptual frameworks and primarily employ qualitative and mixed-method ethnographic methods in domestic and international settings. My recent publications, presentations and workshops have focused on racism, race relations, culture, instructional leadership and social justice in K-12 practice and in administrator preparation programs. More specifically, I have studied:

1. Educational leadership practice and preparation
2. Education and racism
3. Education and globalization
4. International education
5. The social contexts and dynamics of schools
6. Leadership for social justice
7. Instructional leadership
8. School reform

I also deliver workshops for faculty in institutions of higher education on issues related to leadership, and to  increasing the quantity and quality of faculty and graduate student publications. Please contact me about my work at jeffrey.brooks@monash.edu
