Description
The Ethics of School Administration has been expanded to include important philosophical issues that have emerged in the last decade.
The new Second Edition features:
a totally new chapter that addresses diversity--emphasizing both religious and cultural differences
new cases that discuss such current issues as sexual harassment and child abuse
This book, once again, provides school administrators with a rigorous yet practical approach to the difficult dilemmas that so often arise in their profession. The authors, using case studies to illustrate particular ethical issues, cover such topics as:
standards
assessment and evaluation
equal opportunity
multiculturalism
religious differences
due process
freedom of expression
personal liberty
and authority.
