Dissertations

This study investigated the relationship between leadership style and perceived performance in selected tasks.

Some Characteristics Associated With The Effectiveness Of Elementary Principals As Demonstrated By Role Perceptions And Utilization Of Time, Judith Jean Johansen

Dissertations

Elementary principals have a major role in the educational system. However, research addressing their priorities, activities, and performance is limited. Studies indicate a relationship between principal performance and school effectiveness and achievement of students. This investigation identified factors which may be associated with principal effectiveness: length of time in the principalship, gender, level of self-confidence, and leader style. It proposed that there is a relationship between principals' priorities and activities. It predicted that there are differences in the priorities and degree of participation in activities between new and experienced principals, male and female principals, self-confident and less self-confident principals, and …

Variety Is Key Word In Aca Convention Programming, James E. Roever

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This announcement previews ACA sponsored convention programming held with the Speech Communication Association. It summarizes sessions on public issues forums, faculty review of artistic work, departmental structures across speech communication, theatre, and mass communication, future university contexts, department evaluation consulting, and classroom climate for women. The notice also mentions a cosponsored program on teaching deaf people, situating the convention agenda within communication administration, higher education, faculty evaluation, curriculum concerns, and professional association activity.

Law Training As Preparation For Communication Administration, David Jamison

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines law training as a resource for communication administration and academic leadership. It identifies legal study as a source of habits that may help administrators analyze problems, narrow disputes, practice advocacy, reason through probabilities, and attend to ethical responsibility. The discussion first reviews what legal education seeks to impart, including attention to experience, analysis, advocacy, probable judgment, and professional ethics. It then applies these assumptions to department heads, deans, and program administrators who manage scarce resources, curriculum change, faculty concerns, institutional politics, and arguments for program value. The article does not claim that lawyers make superior administrators. Instead, …

Developing Communicative Skills In Non-Native Speakers Through Dramatic Techniques, Madeline Brand

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Designed for language and communication instruction, this article presents dramatic techniques as a way to develop oral communication skills among speakers for whom English is not a first language. It describes the limits of grammar drills and formal classroom settings, then frames drama as a practical method for creating motivation, reducing anxiety, and encouraging meaningful speech. The discussion distinguishes drama from theatre and emphasizes activities that draw students into realistic interpersonal situations. Techniques include pantomime, dialogs, improvisation, role playing, interviews, choral speaking, and storytelling. The article presents these methods as tools for increasing student participation, social confidence, listening, cultural awareness, …

An Analysis Of Degree-Granting Institutions And Number Of Articles Published By Their Graduates, Don W. Stacks, Mark L. Hickson Iii

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Using publication data from major speech communication journals, this article examines institutional prestige by tracing where published authors earned their highest degrees. Rather than ranking departments by current faculty output, the study credits articles to the institutions granting authors’ degrees, arguing that graduate productivity offers another indicator of program influence. The analysis reports patterns by degree level, departmental affiliation, and degree granting institution, then compares the resulting rankings with earlier studies based on departmental productivity and editorial board membership. The article identifies broad overlap among several ranking approaches while cautioning that publication counts do not measure article quality and may …

Come On Administrators: Get Off Our Backs, Gordon R. Owen

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Drawing on experience as a postsecondary speech educator, this commentary critiques administrative policies that prioritize publication counts over teaching quality and faculty judgment. It argues that pressures tied to enrollment decline, retrenchment, tenure insecurity, and managerial self preservation can make faculty the scapegoat and reduce educational quality. The essay challenges assumptions that teaching quality cannot be measured, that research and publication are equivalent, that publication totals are universally accepted measures of excellence, that submission readily produces publication, that publication guarantees quality, that experimental quantitative work should outrank other forms of inquiry, and that conference travel is justified only by presenting …

Thinking About Teaching, Research, And Administration: A Response To "Come On Administrators", John Sullivan

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Written as a response to the preceding critique of academic administration, this essay argues that communication faculty should engage administrative decision making through the same skills they teach, including persuasion, group process, conflict management, and organizational communication. It challenges a “leave us alone” posture and emphasizes access to committees, institutional service, scholarly reputation, and departmental quality control as practical routes to influence. The discussion defends research and publication as forms of peer teaching, especially in graduate education, while cautioning against simple publication counts. It also considers the limits of student evaluations and concludes that departments should define focused missions suited …
