This guide fills a serious void with regard to information and guidelines on portfolios and standards-based licensing requirements for both building level and district level administrators. It can be used as a supplemental guide in administrative courses or as a text for independent study or internship courses. This guide is also useful for practicing school leaders pursuing licensure renewal and for aspiring leaders building job-placement credentials.

This review is from: Preparing a Professional Portfolio: A School Administrator's Guide (Paperback)
This book provides a mini-lesson covering the major concepts that should have been taught during a masters degree in educational administration. After the major related concepts are discussed, the key dispositions, performances, and skills are outlined. Performance activities are suggested. Case studies provide practice on implementation.

Example: For Standard 1, an historical review of organizational theory if offered to explain how a vision can impact a school.
