New Directions in the Professional Development of School Administrators: A Synthesis and Suggestions for Improvement by Joseph Murphy and Philip Hallinger; CONTRIBUTORS; INDEXIn this important new collection Murphy and Hallinger bring together descriptions of a wide range of the new models in use in educational administrative training. Most of these eleven models have developed in response to contemporary criticism of the educational administrative theory movement, and each, in its own way, strives to bridge the chasm between educational theory and practice. The approaches represented here stress the importance of the administrators' engagement in the daily life of the school, and encourage administrators to learn from one another. While some models have come from leadership academies, others have been developed and tested in state departments of education, professional associations, and educational institutions. The book represents an important resource for those working with pre- and inservice administrators as they learn ways in which their involvement can improve the nation's schools. Joseph Murphy is Associate Professor of educational administration, higher, and continuing education at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Philip Hallinger is Director of the Westchester Principals' Center in Ardsley, New York.SUNY series in educational leadership.School administratorsTraining ofSchool administratorsTraining ofUnited StatesSchool administratorsTraining of.School administratorsTraining of371.2/00973Murphy Joseph1949-912547Hallinger Philip1952-1141103MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962130003321Approaches to administrative training in education4478918UNINA
