Organization Beh/Multicultural Society

Catalog description

This course is intended to provide the candidates with an understanding of the structure and dynamics of the school as an organization in a multicultural society. A knowledge base founded in the works of Kolb, Vroom, McClelland, Likert, Boyatzis, Schein, Bennis and other researchers and theorists will serve as a guide to students' understanding the complexity of an organization. Candidates will gain self- understanding by using Kolb's conceptual model of concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, and active experimentation. The candidates will gain insights into their role in the organization through hands-on experiences in the functions of the school as a social organization.
