Product Description
This text has been developed for use by graduate students preparing for careers in higher education administration, primarily in student affairs administration, who are enrolled in practicum and internship courses in higher education administration or student affairs programs. Higher education administration requires a balance of knowledge and skills grounded in professional values, necessitating a knowledge of higher education environments and principles of organizational effectiveness. This book will help students to bridge the gap between theory taught in the classroom and the actual practice they will experience in the practicum and internship. It gives students guidelines for all skill areas they must develop, including teaching, administration, advising, leadership, conflict management, planning, programming, and individual and group facilitation. This is the companion text to Supervised Practice in Higher Education: A Handbook for Faculty and Supervisors (faculty/supervisor text) by Steven Janosik, Joan Hirt, Don Creamer, and Roger Winston.
