Since new role changes resulting from school reform agendas can place a school administrator at any career stage in uncharted territory, a career-long mentoring approach is recommended. The first chapters of this book introduce the concept of mentoring and the socialization framework consisting of characteristics, stages, methods, and goals. Subsequent chapters discuss mentoring and socialization of administrative interns, assistant principals, new principals and mid-career administrators. The final chapter discusses the organizational planning, selection, training, matching, and evaluation aspects of implementing mentor programs. (Contains 175 references.) (LH)
Daniel Meadows was born in 1779 in North Carolina. He married Ann Thompson in 1801 in Wilkes Co., Georgia. They moved to Grantville, Coweta Co., Georgia, where he died in 1875.
This book focuses on the skills, training, values, and assumptions that principals and assistant principals employ as leaders and reformers. This text views administrators more broadly as transformational leaders who include the entire school community in reform. Scenarios and activities are used to provide a bridge from learning the theory of school administration to the practical problem solving in which school leaders engage.
Much has changed in the world of self-taught art since the millennium. Many of the recognized "masters" have died and new artists have emerged. Many galleries have closed but few new ones have opened, as artists and dealers increasingly sell through websites and social media. The growth and popularity of auction houses have altered the relationship between artists and collectors. In its third edition, this book provides updated information on artists, galleries, museums, auctions, organizations and publications for both experienced and aspiring collectors of self-taught, outsider and folk art. Gallery and museum entries are organized geographically and alphabetically by state and city.
