Book Description
With this journal, Dr. Luz Casio offers her authentic voice in a way that centers her bilingual and bicultural knowledges, experience, and perspectives. At the same time, her reflection prompts provide opportunities for readers to center their own cultural knowledges and perspectives as valid counternarratives to what has dominated the field. A regular practice of using a learning journal provides a window into your own inner wisdom, wonderings, and visual metaphors. Looking back through the pages, you begin to see who you are now and uncover who you want to be. Although this journal was created as a companion to The Visionary Director, Third Edition, it can also be used as an independent learning tool. The reflection prompts can be used for course discussions and assignments, as well as in professional learning communities (PLC). Con este diario, Dra.

Una práctica regular de usar un diario de aprendizaje proporciona una ventana a su propia sabiduría interior, preguntas y metáforas visuales. Mirando hacia atrás a través de las páginas, comienzas a ver quién eres ahora y descubres quién quieres ser. Aunque este diario se creó como complemento de The Visionary Director, Third Edition, también se puede utilizar como una herramienta de aprendizaje independiente. Las sugerencias de reflexión se pueden utilizar para discusiones y asignaciones de cursos, así como en comunidades de aprendizaje profesional (PLC).

Program Administration Scale (PAS)
Author: Teri N. Talan
Publisher: Teachers College Press
ISBN: 9780807752456
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Research has consistently found that effective administrative practices are crucial for ensuring beneficial program outcomes for children and families. The Program Administration Scale (PAS) is designed to reliably measure and improve the leadership and management practices of center-based programs—the only instrument of its kind to focus exclusively on organization-wide administrative issues. Using a 7-point rating scale (inadequate to excellent), this easy-to-use instrument assesses 25 items grouped into 10 categories: human resources development, personnel cost and allocation, center operations, child assessment, fiscal management, program planning and evaluation, family partnerships, marketing and public relations, technology, and staff qualifications. This new second edition of the PAS includes minor refinements to support the reliable use of the instrument and to reflect current best practices in early childhood administration. The Notes and Guiding Questions for the PAS items are expanded to increase understanding and facilitate greater consistency in scoring. Emphasis is placed on administrative practices that support family partnership, inclusion, cultural sensitivity, and linguistic diversity. Routines that demonstrate distributed leadership are measured. The focus in technology is on practices that promote effective communication, collaboration, and continuous learning.
