A Book of Readings

Produktbeschreibung

Values and ethics have traditionally been considered an important influence on administrative practices, and are typically included as a component of core courses in department of educational administration in the US, Canada and Australia. The recent resurgence of interest among practitioners in the topic of values and ethics as a guide to action increases the importance and appeal of this book of readings. This comprehensive book extends beyond the presentation of 'expert opinion' and appeals to an audience of academics and practitioners working at the policy level of educational organisations. Theory building, policy applications and praxis are addressed in this highly adoptable book by leading scholars in the field.
