Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March of 2020, the education landscape changed drastically due to the closure of schools from the COVID-19 pandemic, forcing educators to quickly transition from traditional brick-and-mortar environments to online learning. This qualitative study examined the perceptions of superintendents from rural school districts in Pennsylvania in response to the challenges they encountered during that shift. The study also considered how online learning opportunities in their schools changed from what was offered previously, and if the administrative training superintendents received prepared them to lead the shift to online learning. Through the use of surveys and interviews, perceptual data was obtained from 37 Pennsylvania rural school district superintendents. Supported by the research, this study uncovered that access to broadband internet was the most common online learning challenge encountered during the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, professional development for quality online instruction, equitable funding for technology, and support to meet the needs of special education students were identified. Research revealed that the increase in the number of rural school districts implementing a district-led cyber program was motivated by a need to combat the high costs of cyber charter school tuition that school districts are responsible to fund. Superintendents in this study also reflected on their administrative training programs, confirming that crisis planning and management must be added to the program curriculum. This skill set will help future superintendents effectively lead during a time of crisis, whether it is due to a fire, natural disaster, school shooting, or pandemic. The findings of this study will be used to help educational leaders make more informed decisions about the implementation of their current and future online learning programs.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative study investigated superintendent perceptions of effective principal leadership and its impact on school culture in high schools. The three research questions examined superintendents' perceptions on the components of a healthy high school culture, and the qualities that effective principals employ to directly impact the culture of their high schools in their school districts. Thirty-nine superintendents from across central and northeastern Pennsylvania participated in this study and completed the researcher developed online survey. Of those, five participated in a telephone interview with the researcher. The findings from the research revealed that superintendents perceive that effective principal leadership does influence the culture of high schools. The results from the study implicated identifiable qualities and strategies of principals that superintendents expect to enhance the school culture of high schools located in their school districts. These qualities and strategies include principal risk taking, continuous professional development, and the ability to communicate a clear vision and mission of the school. These findings may provide valuable information to superintendents and other school administrators to help inform decisions on how to effectively improve the culture of their high schools and improve student learning in their own school systems.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative study examined school leader perceptions regarding the implementation and maintenance of mass customized learning environments. The goal was to identify several key aspects and benefits of mass customized learning from education leaders that have implemented such a design. The reader could then determine for him or herself if their school district or system was suited and prepared to implement mass customized learning. Participants included school leaders such as superintendents, assistant superintendents, principals, assistant principals, and other school leaders responsible for making school district decisions from five states including: California, Maine, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and South Dakota. Participating districts ranged in size from less than 1,000 students to more than 5,000 students. In order to determine these school leaders' perceptions, data were collected through an online survey, short constructed open-ended questions, and structured interviews. Little to no preexisting research on mass customized learning exists. This study sought to increase the body of existing research on the implementation and maintenance of mass customized learning environments. Results from this study included aspects of business and industry that could be replicated to suit a learning environment, aspects of school climate that support mass customized learning, necessary characteristics of school leaders in a customized learning environment, and additional school operations such as technology, learner agency, professional development, scheduling and structures, and teaming to consider in a mass customized learning environment.
