The reflective seminar course is designed to support students while assuming the role of a school administrator. This seminar offers field-based experiences and joint supervision of a school administrator.
School administrative seminar is the bridge between classroom teachers and first-time leadership positions. Research shows that quality Internships/seminars are equally as important as the graduate programs themselves in establishing leadership practices that improve teaching, learning, and school conditions. This course is a stand-alone graduate course that serves as a guide and support for creating and managing quality school leader internship programs. This course provides step-by-step guidance for interns, their supervisors, and their faculty on how to initiate an internship and evaluate interns’ work. Course goals are aligned with the ISLLC standards.
