Description
Hats off to this professional volume tailored just for practicing language program administrators and administrators-in-training! Most administrators begin their administrative careers with expertise in language teaching, curriculum design, and materials development. They often have to learn the rest by trial and error. However, now with this one-of-a-kind handbook, you can say good-bye to the trial and error process forever! Written by experienced professionals in the field, this resource focuses on the multiple roles that language program administrators must play, including multicultural manager; strategic planner; decision maker; negotiator; innovator; student, faculty, and program advocate; promoter; organizer; budgeter; and writer. Each chapter offers problem-solving suggestions and activities to assist in handling the challenges faced by administrators. There’s also a final section featuring essential principles of gender equity, marketing, international teacher assistant training, immigration, and marketing. This is a valuable text in courses designed to train future administrators in MA and Certification programs–plus it’s a must for every language administrator’s personal library! - from Amzon
