Educational administration

the long version

In this volume, Professors Strayer and Thorndike present materials of essential value that relate to educational administration from various articles and monographs, in such a compact form that every educational administrator can have a copy for his desk. It permits also an effective use of these materials for class discussion, since the book can be in the hands of the students as a reference text. The volume does not attempt to show the relations of the various topics discussed to the field of education in general, or to show general administrative perspective. It is expected that the educational administrator is already familiar with these matters, and that where the book is used as a text, comment and perspective will be supplied by lectures and readings from other books already in the field.
