Case studies are a wonderful way to engage future educators in real-life problem solving. Unlike most textbooks, which give the students information and provide answers for future examinations, case studies are open-ended and require active thinking and learning forcing future educators to think and act like an actual school administrator. All New Real-Life Case Studies for School Administrators details topics that are paramount in today's schools and provides educators advice in dealing with the issues. The case studies in this book include: ·Pressure caused by the testing requirements of No Child Left Behind ·Difficulties in meeting federal requirements for handicapped children under the pressure of providing the "least restrictive environment" ·The challenge of providing and maintaining effective security plans for school buildings ·Making sense out of contradictory educational research studies ·Establishing priorities when considering the importance of electives and extra curricular activities ·Poor teacher morale as a result of testing pressures | All New Real-Life Case Studies for School Administrators by William Hayes, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
