PARADIGMS AND PRACTICES OF SCHOOLING

Catalog description

This is an advanced seminar to explore leadership and supervisory practices. Particular attention will be given to organizational conceptualizations (paradigms) for addressing current educational problems and issues. Candidates will be encouraged to think outside the traditional frames of education in order to improve student achievement in PK-12 schools. When a paradigm shifts, the way we view the world and what we assume to be true dramatically changes. When faced with shifting circumstances, school leaders can turn change into opportunity and opportunity into success.
