Opis: Organizational Behavior in Education - Thomas Valesky, Robert Owens

Basic Approach For students taking courses in educational administration and leadership. An authoritative and timely examination of organizational behavior and how leaders can create effective school cultures. Well-established as a standard textbook in the preparation of effective and thoughtful school administrators, Organizational Behavior in Education continues its tradition of offering students of educational administration the most current thinking and the most in-depth exploration of organizational leadership as it relates to decision-making, organizational change, managing conflict, and motivating others. As readers are challenged to develop and analyze the successful implementation of school reform, they gain a professional understanding of the organizational theory and research that are the bedrock of modern practice. The thoroughly revised tenth edition of Organizational Behavior in Education updates the research and theory behind organizational effectiveness in schools as it pertains to change, leadership, and new issues in school reform including comprehensive school reform models, charter schools, and school vouchers. This new material contains current emerging developments in the fast-paced world of contemporary school reform and keeps students abreast of emerging trends.Preface Educational Leadership Policy Standards: The New ISLLC Standards For 2008 ISLLC Functions By Chapter CHAPTER 1: In Search of a Vision Critical Incident: The Vision For South Shore High School ASSUMPTIONS, BELIEFS, BEHAVIORS THE NATURE OF SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS IMPACT OF BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE Psychoanalytic Psychology Sociological and Psychological Points of View Cognitive Psychology Social Psychology Field Theory of Behavior SCHOOLS AS EDUCATIVE ORGANIZATIONS Organizational Theory Theory Defined and Described Two Major Perspectives on Educational Organizations Bureaucratic Theory Human Resources Development Theory Theory X and Theory Y THE RELEVANCE TO SCHOOL LEADERSHIP TODAY VISION AND EDUCATIONAL LEADERSHIP THE NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT OF 2001 RESEARCH IN EDUCATION The Framingham Heart Study The Tennessee STAR Study Research and NCLB LEADERSHIP AS COACHING Coaching as a Method of Teaching CONCLUSION REFLECTIVE ACTIVITIES SUGGESTED READING CHAPTER 2: Guiding Concepts of Practice Critical Incident: Controversy at the Principals' Meeting TWO PRINCIPAL SOURCES OF CONFLICT The "Great Debate": Traditional versus Progressive Education The Beginnings of the Great Educational Debate The Backlash of the 1950s The Neoprogressives Emerge in the 1960s THE CONTEMPORARY DEBATE ON SCHOOLING A PARADIGM SHIFT IN EDUCATION A Passion for Equality The Traditional Paradigm of Intelligence A New Paradigm of Intelligence or the Lake Wobegon Syndrome?
