EDUC 643 - Instructional Leadership to Promote Learning

Institution:

University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Brody. Prerequisite(s): Admission to ELPAP (Educational Leadership Program for Aspiring Principals). This first course of Educational Leadership Program for Aspiring Principals begins with an exploration of values and beliefs underlying leadership in schools. Students examine the knowledge, dispositions and performances needed for the continuous improvement of K-12 instruction, including those identified in the standards for school leaders promoted by the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC). We study current research in learning, teaching and assessment by focusing on student achievement in K-12 literacy and social studies. Students develop field inquiry projects related to these two curricular areas as they gain insight into how effective school leaders connect theory and practice. Coursework includes interactive case studies, team projects, panel presentations and guest speakers.
