EDAM 583 - Educational Leadership-Principalship

3 Credit Hours
Will look at the principalship, specifically the primary roles, traits, and functions of highly effective building level administrators. Will approach the principalship as a complex, multi-faceted profession that requires individuals to demonstrate a number of important leadership traits as well as fulfill a number of interrelated roles within schools. During this class, students will gain an understanding of these roles or functions through a study of the text, the Tennessee Licensure Standards for Principals (TILS), and the National Policy Board for Educational Administration (NPBEA) Standards. This course will rely heavily upon the text as well as scenarios or cases from actual schools as the primary vehicles for discussion and understanding. As much as possible, the focus will not only be on the theoretical traits and roles of the principal but also on how these capacities and functions play out in schools.
