About this title

Synopsis

School Leader Internship, sixth edition, challenges aspiring educational leaders and interns to better assess, prepare, plan, implement, and evaluate their internship experience in preparation for certification, licensure, and advancement into school building-level leadership positions.

In this updated edition, the content is organized around the latest National Educational Leadership Preparation (NELP) Standards with cross-references to relevant Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL). It provides further guidance on internship assessment and the roles of the program advisor and internship supervisor (both building and program level), and adds a section on frequently asked questions. Updated internship activities address current critical issues and include recommendations on how to incorporate cross-cutting themes.

This unique book provides step-by-step guidance for interns, their supervisors, and faculty on how to initiate an internship and evaluate interns' work and is a critical resource for leadership preparation programs nationwide and the thousands of school districts that support leadership candidates.

Special features:

• The NELP Standards Assessment provides an understanding of the wide breadth of experience and demonstration of skills necessary for school leaders.
• Self and Superior Assessment helps students to plan according to individual needs, experience, goals, and performance expectations.
• Self and Superior Disposition Assessment helps students evaluate their initial leadership dispositions and plan for growth experiences.
• Internship Plans allow students to assess, analyze, and prepare draft individualized internship plans.
• Professional Report or Portfolio encourages students to evaluate and reflect on their experiences and further leadership development.
