Dear colleagues, I was wondering about what “in both” refers to, right at the end of the passage below... to “students and teachers alike”, maybe?
The passage is taken from this article:

Thank you very much for any hint!
**************
To take root in a school setting, adults and students alike need to be practicing systems thinking and reflection, especially since these skills are so under-developed among adults, and there is a tendency for adult educators to declare that they understand systems thinking even though they have little skill in doing it. For this reason, we have come to emphasize that school management and leadership is an essential counterpart to classroom application, showing how many of the same tools and practices can be applied in both.

school management and leadership and classroom application
School management and leadership shows the tools that can be used both in "school management and leadership" and in "classroom application".
I think with the context given it could be it.

As "is" is used instead of "are" and it's referred to as singular in the sentence.
So this could be some sort of subject.
To be honest I am bit confused now haha.
Let's hear what other people have to say.
Take care!
