5 out of 5 stars School Leadership and administration: Imporatant Concept Case Studies, and Simulations

The book was exactly as described. Very worth while Case Studies, and Real-World issues.

5 out of 5 stars Good book for beginning leaders

Cases studies in the book are good. Gives readers an excellant understanding of what can happen without good leadership in a school and how it can affect the learning environment.

5 out of 5 stars Just like New

5 out of 5 stars very interesting

was a book i had to buy for a class and was pretty expensive. with that said--its defintely one i will always keep and reference later. i wish my principal had a copy.

4 out of 5 stars School Leadership 101

I am using this book for a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. The writing is very straight forward and easy to understand. It talks about several models of leadership and how those concepts apply to Educational Administration. Each week, my class is reviewing the case studies in the book- which is interesting. They give the vignette, and ask the reader how they would solve the conflict of issue, as a leader.
