Case studies on educational administration.
Theodore J. Kowalski , University of Dayton Follow
Document Type
Publication date.
This book immerses prospective administrators in the realities of practice and decision-making through the use of a wide range of open-ended case studies. Effective practice in school administration involves making decisions about management of schools and reform, including state deregulation, district decentralization, and school restructuring. Leaders need to think beyond management and consider how to affect school culture, professional development, and changing populations. The cases in this book will help leaders address those issues by honing three key skills: (1) How to identify and solve problems; (2) How to develop and evaluate alternative solutions; (3) How to continuously refine professional knowledge.

Product description
From the back cover.
What is the best way to immerse prospective administrators in the reality of practice? Perhaps no other tool better gives educational leadership students a better grasp of their future profession than open-ended case studies. In this text, 24 such case studies help students to think critically about common administrative problems, effectively manage school-wide issues, and successfully and fairly implement solutions. Touching on issues ranging from staff development to bullying in schools to grading practices, this collection of true-to-life case studies helps students to hone their decision-making skills and develop a winning approach to even the most disparate issues.
Each case in this text hones four essential practitioner skills:
1. The ability to frame a problem correctly
2. The ability to develop and evaluate alternative solutions to a defined problem
3. The ability to use data and other facts to counter the influence of politics and emotion in decision making
4. The ability to develop tacit knowledge and to integrate it with theoretical knowledge by engaging in reflective practice
