EDAD5011 Teacher Leader: Making Decisions & Solving Problems
This course views the Teacher Leader as a change agent who has the potential to impact the school system when equipped with specific knowledge and skills that are often limited to administrator preparation. After laying a foundation of an effective problem solving and decision making process, case application will support issues that teacher leaders are confronting in their school sites. Integral to making effective, ethically sound decisions, is enhancing understanding of the implications of statutory and regulatory requirements and related school policies in the day-to-day operation of schools. Knowledge and application of budget development and resource allocation will support Teacher Leaders as they initiate special curricular or instructional projects at their schools.
