Hope Replenished: Exceptional Scholarship Strides in Educational Administration
(Complete Item Description)
- Abstract:
For decades now, critics have viewed educational leadership and administration as sorely lacking in many respects?including as a field of scholarly inquiry. Numerous studies have judged the profession to be in poor health, yet it has also been acknowledged that, despite its shortcomings, the educational leadership profession has made progress. The purpose of this discussion is to highlight some of the best scholarly practices in the field as determined by empirically developed themes and peer-based feedback. Exemplars were solicited, nation-wide, from faculty; the survey results are reported within the context of a "best practice" scholarship typology. The hope is that the structure provided for grouping best practice exemplars will stimulate readers to add others that similarly follow rigorous standards for selection, enabling a comprehensive resource of current developments of some magnitude to result.
