Book An Investigation Into the Perceptions Held by K12 Muslim Female Islamic School Teachers in the United States of School Leadership Practices and Their Effects on School Climate and School Efficacy

Download or read book An Investigation Into the Perceptions Held by K12 Muslim Female Islamic School Teachers in the United States of School Leadership Practices and Their Effects on School Climate and School Efficacy written by Sofia Tanweer Hussain and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dynamic era of change the educational landscape in North America offers parents a plethora of choices when it comes to educating their children. Muslim American parents are no exception to this phenomenon, specifically after the world was shaken on September 11th, 2001. Muslim professionals saw an opening in the market, and so Islamic schools proliferated through the country. A priori studies on Islamic schools have focused on the perceptions held by school leaders of the effects of their leadership style on school climate; the gap in literature has provided the impetus for this research. As such, this qualitative, Interpretative Phenomenological study uses servant leadership theory, school climate theory, and aligns these with Islamic leadership theory to create a lens, to describe the understandings and perceptions held by Islamic school teachers of their experiences with school leadership, and its perceived effects on school climate. The results from this study indicate a few salient and noteworthy points; first, the culture of nepotism in Islamic schools indicates that employees may not always be treated equally; next, teachers confirmed that their state of mind is what led to the positive climate that they experienced. Moreover, they reported a lack of transparency between leaders and stakeholders. A lack of cultural competency as well as a deficiency in academic proficiency regarding policy and curriculum meant that leaders were ill prepared to deal with common issues. Participants also reported the common use of religious guilt and most prominently, the implementation of a dictatorship under the guise of the Islamic shura Ideology, which promotes mutual consultation and honors the voice of subordinates. The findings of this study will provide Islamic school organizations with a foundation for assessing the role of principal leadership, specifically with regards to its effect on school climate. Furthermore, this research will enable schools to modify credentialing and continued professional development requirements for their principals, as well supporting ongoing research regarding leadership in Islamic schools. Cultural constraints make it challenging for many ethnic minority individuals (particularly women) to speak openly about disparities that they deal with on a daily basis; to some this is considered a form of disloyalty or treachery, to which end, this research will provide the stimulus for dialogue amongst Islamic school boards and teachers.

Book American Muslim School Leadership

Download or read book American Muslim School Leadership written by Siham Kamal Elsegeiny and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study employed a quantitative research design using a mail survey to explore leadership style in Islamic schools in the United States. The purpose of the study was to describe levels of transformational and transactional leadership of American Muslim principals. Correlational analyses were used to determine the relationship between principal and teacher reports of principals' use of transformational leadership and the relationship of demographic variables to perceptions of transformational leadership. Multiple regression analyses showed that none of the six demographic variables were significant predictors of the variance in principal- or teacher-reported use of transformational leadership. Thirty-three principals responded to the MLQ 5X self-rating form and 143 teachers responded to the MLQ 5X other-rating form. Principals rated themselves higher than their teachers on transformational leadership and lower than their teachers on transactional leadership. Both principals and teachers ranked principals highest in Inspirational Motivation and lowest in Management-by-Exception Passive. Principals rated themselves as being more intellectually stimulating and less often using contingent reward. In schools where teachers were more congruent in their ratings of the principal, they tended to perceive the principals as more transformational than did teachers in schools where teachers were less congruent in their ratings. It appears that where principals are more consistent in their interactions with teachers, teachers have higher opinions of the principal as a transformational leader. Both teachers and principals rated principals of American Muslim schools as fairly high in the use of both transformational and transactional leadership. Comparisons of these findings to other research in the U.S. suggest that American Muslim principals exhibit leadership characteristics very similar to those of other U.S. principals.

Book The Promise of Patriarchy

Download or read book The Promise of Patriarchy written by Ula Yvette Taylor and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The patriarchal structure of the Nation of Islam (NOI) promised black women the prospect of finding a provider and a protector among the organization's men, who were fiercely committed to these masculine roles. Black women's experience in the NOI, however, has largely remained on the periphery of scholarship. Here, Ula Taylor documents their struggle to escape the devaluation of black womanhood while also clinging to the empowering promises of patriarchy. Taylor shows how, despite being relegated to a lifestyle that did not encourage working outside of the home, NOI women found freedom in being able to bypass the degrading experiences connected to labor performed largely by working-class black women and in raising and educating their children in racially affirming environments. Telling the stories of women like Clara Poole (wife of Elijah Muhammad) and Burnsteen Sharrieff (secretary to W. D. Fard, founder of the Allah Temple of Islam), Taylor offers a compelling narrative that explains how their decision to join a homegrown, male-controlled Islamic movement was a complicated act of self-preservation and self-love in Jim Crow America.
