Law And Ethics In Educational Leadership (2nd Edition) (Allyn & Bacon Educational Leadership)

Law and Ethics in Educational Leadership, 2/e presents a real-world, problem-based approach that shows leadership candidates how to apply the legal knowledge, ethical dispositions, and other skills necessary to become successful school leaders. In a user-friendly, coherent approach to the study of legal issues the author shows how changes in law and society impact decision-making, and how to apply ethical frameworks to their own future decision-making. Included are numerous opportunities to analyze, evaluate, and synthesize legal knowledge and ethical frameworks to begin thinking like school leaders. Illustrative case studies show readers the ambiguity presented by many problems they will face as school leaders and encourage them to analyze the circumstances surrounding the dilemma and respond appropriately.

The quality of this text is less than newsprint. Forget being able to annotate - the paper is so thin it rips with turning the pages. The printed text is bleeding through each page - front to back - impossible to read. You can't hold the text in your hand due to the poor quality of materials - the books simply flops down around your hands. Not recommended.

Despite the fact that this is a college text, I've seen several typos in only the first few chapters. I don't know if these errors are exclusive to the Kindle edition or if they are in the physical copy of the book as well. I just assumed that editors would be more diligent in grammar and spelling. Otherwise very good resource and excellent case studies for each chapter.

The only thing I dislike about this product (and the last Pearson book I purchased)is that it feels as if I just purchased a PDF file rather than an actual e-book!There's no page animation, no text size settings, and it is pretty tough reading having to zoom in and out all the time.

This book is a great resource that you will want to keep on your bookshelf for future reference. A must read for all teachers and administrators.

A book that all educators must read! With a highly legal society educators must be prepared to understand law an ethics within education.

The shipment of the item was great, I got it when promised. The product was not what I expected. The book is rather worn out. Many pages are crumpled. For $41, I was expecting a better product. Fortunately, I will be able to use it.

The publisher should be ashamed of this joke of an eBook. The formatting is absolutely horrendous.

Renting the book but its a pretty good read.
