Description

Although there are several case study books for administrators, this one book, specifically for superintendents, is framed within the state and national standards. It offers a way for superintendents as well as those in training to combine best-practice theory with practice using everyday, realistic situations.

Each chapter includes:
· questions for discussion
· references
· additional resources

Readers will also find a corresponding brief literature review and a case study that illustrates the standard being discussed.
