The Special Education Administrator Role As Perceived By Principals, Superintendents And Special Education Administrators In West Virginia, Michael Edward Sullivan

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

Data resulting from 202 returns of the questionnaires and demographic surveys from the 260 individuals contacted were analyzed to test fourteen null hypotheses. Respondents were asked to rate perceived performance of tasks as well as their perception of the degree of importance of each. Demographic data were …

Teacher Education And The Politics Of Engagement: The Case For Democratic Schooling, Henry A. Giroux, Peter Mclaren

Education Faculty Articles and Research

Henry A. Giroux and Peter McLaren argue that many of the recently recommended public school reforms either sidestep or abandon the principles underlying education for a democratic citizenry developed by John Dewey and others in the early part of this century. Yet, Giroux and McLaren believe that this historical precedent suggests a way of reconceptualizing teaching and public schooling which revives the values of democratic citizenship and social justice. They demonstrate that teachers, as "transformative intellectuals," can reclaim space in schools for the exercise of critical citizenship via an ethical and political discourse that recasts, in emancipatory terms, the relationships …

A Survey Of Faculty Development Practices, Glenn Erickson

To Improve the Academy: A Journal of Educational Development

The POD Network decided to conduct a survey of faculty development practices for several reasons.

Also, we were curious about just what kinds of services were being offered by whom in our colleges and universities and whether things had changed dramatically in the years since Centra's survey (Centra, 1976). Finally, we had never had a decent mailing list of "development" practitioners, yet we claimed to be committed to putting such …
