Name: Interactive Case Study Simulations in Educational Leadership
ID: m14100
Language: English (en)
Summary: Simulations are presented that are interactive and use video clips to present problem scenarios that are followed by decision-making or discussion opportunities for students. In this online set of simulations are three case studies of typical administrative problems that school leaders and teachers might encounter. The topics for the three cases involve the following: a) a student’s walkman-type radio is stolen from him on a school bus; b) some teachers complain to the principal about another teacher who is consistently late in picking up her students; c) one special education student and one regular student in an inclusive classroom get into a fight with a variety of different versions of the fight presented--each of which leads to different problem solving opportunities. In addition, there is a manual that suggests ways in which professors and students may use the simulations, and the manual also provides an overview of decision making theory for students to review.
