All New Real-Life Case Studies for School Administrators

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
