Educational administration programs aiming to reduce the 'theory-practice gap' in the pre-service preparation of school principals will find plenty of suggestions in this text. Strategies for reforming the field dimensions of pre-service practice and an in-depth discussion of conventional assessment practices along with the reasons for shifting to a more student-centered process are explored. More a detailed, comprehensive narrative than a minimalist guide, this work develops fully the conceptual rationale behind the program reforms it describes.
