SYMPOSIUM 9

In October, 1991, the UCEA Executiv Committee, acting on the advice of the Plenum, askedthe cQnsortium's officers to form a Steeri g Committee and charge it with the task of planning "aseries of events and activities aimed at d fining the knowledge base and to propose ambitiouscurriculum goals for the field of educatio al administration by October, 1994." Wayne K. Hoy(Rutgers University) was named chair of Steering Committee and he was joined by members ofthe Executive Committee acting as liaison t the study teams formed around each of the 7 knowledgedomains identified by the National Policy oard of Educational Administration in its 1989 report:The Preparation of School Administrators: An Agenda for Reform. In addition to Hoy, the SteeringCommittee included: Terry A. Astuto ( ew York University), Patrick B. Forsyth (UCEA),Muriel Mackett (Northern illinois Univer ity), Rodney J.Reed (The Pennsylvania State Univer-sity), Pedro Reyes (University of Texas, Avstin), and Gail T. Schneider (University of Wisconsin-

Milwaukee).tUCEA's current interest in the profess onalknowledge base began in 1.986 during the National

Commission project. It became clear th t the Commission would not be able to address thecontroversial issue of curriculum content or administrator preparation. During the next severalyears, some efforts to address these proble~ were launched. But, it was not until a strategic planningmeeting of the UCEA Executive Committ e in New Orleans (March 1991), that a formal commit-ment to a specific project aimed at examini g the status quo of knowledge and research in our fieldwas made.

The scope of the original project was massive. It included a first phase which had five objectives:1) To identify a preliminary set of knowledge domains serving as organizers for mapping the field;2) To establish a team of experts for each domain; 3) To engage scholars and practitioners in an effortto map the domains; 4) To produce a set of draft documents of what is known; and 5) To disseminatethe drafts for review, comment, and use in t4e preparation of school administrators. This is the phasewhich the launching of the Primis effort wi~ McGraw-Hill brings to a close. Placing the work of the7 study teams into the context of the flexi~le text represents the ultimate effort to disseminate thedocuments for review and critique. McG~aw-Hill and UCEA are happy to announce that thesematerials are now available (See McGraw~Hill advertisement in this issue).

The second phase of the project has se~en objectives: 1) To review the completeness of the 7domain structure, making adjustments and fidditions where necessary; 2) To expand the knowledgein each domain; 3) To analyze each knowl~dge domain for adequacy; 4) To modify the content ofeach domain; 5) To articulate the knowled¥e of each domain; 6) To identify appropriate media forcommunication to multiple audiences; an~ 7) To search for ways to integrate knowledge acrossdomains. Funding for phase one came fro~ advance royalties and an outright grant from McGraw-Hill. Funding for phase two is uncertain, al~hough royalties from Educational Administration: TheUCEA Document Base may proye sufficiebt to launch phase two.

Some aspects of this pr9ject overlap t1fforts by other groups. However, no other knowledge/curriculum effort in our field includes the ~tentially broad scope of the UCEA project. Going wellbe~ond mapping what we know, the UCEAproject has goals related to the critiq~e, the incorporationof Ignored but relevant knowledge from qivergent sources, and the systematIc construction of aresearch agenda. In addition, the UCE~ project has placed this continuing work in the mostaccessible system of dissemination possible, the Primis document base, so that the project's mostrecent and best thinking is immediately avjlilable for evaluation and use by students, teachers, and

Brian Rowan (University of Michigan),Stephen W. Raudenbush (Michigan StateUniversity), and Yuk Fai Cheong (Michi-gan State University) received the 15thannual Wil1ianl J. Davis Memorial Awardfor their article "Teaching as a NonroutineTask: Implications for the Management ofSchools," which was published in the No-vember 1993 issue, Volume 29 of the Edu-cational Administration Quarterly.

Using contingency theory as a franle-work for analysis, the three authors eXanl-inedworkplace conditions that make teach-ing in high schools nonroutine, and, theyinvestigated the hypothesis that when thework of teachers becomes nonroutine, or-ganic forms of management arise to coordi-nate and control instruction. They alsoinvestigated whether organic forms ofmanagement can reasonably be expected toenhance the effectiveness of teachers by

promoting job-related learning.Rowan and his colleagues found that

perceived variability in students and thedisciplinary specialization of teachers af-fected the extent to which teachers reportedtheir work as nonroutine. Their findingsdemonstrated that nonroutine teaching isassociated with the development of organicmanagement in high schools. However,they found little evidence to support theidea that organic management of instruc-tion leads to more job-related learning byteachers.

On April 8-9, forty top graduate students ineducational administration gathered in NewOrleans to attend the 15th Annual GraduateStudent Research Seminar in Educational Ad-ministration. The Seminar, following theAERA annual convention, was held at the LeMeridian in New Orleans. The forty partici-pants in the seminar are chosen from a pool ofcandidates nominated by universities offeringadvanced degrees. Selection is based on thequality and relevance of the students' researchproposals and their readiness to contribute to theseminar. The seminar offers the graduate stu-dents a unique opportunity to test their researchideas with a group of experienced faculty andform a network with junior colleagues fromacross North America.

The four distinguished faculty presenters atthis year's seminar were Colleen A. Capper(University of Wisconsin-Madison), James G.Cibulka (University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee)Signithia Fordham (Rutgers University) andLaurence Iannaccone ( University of Califor-nia-Santa Barbara). Iannacconne launched theprogram with a masterful review of his life andresearch career, highlighted by the developmentand testing of dissatisfaction theory. Cibulkaexplored a number of concerns focused on cur-rent research trends and offered advice on work-ing with refereed journals toward ultimate pub-lication. Fordham, a former public schoolteacher and current anthropologist, talked abouther extensive studies of urban school childrenand their culture in Washington, D.C. Finally,Capper related the tribulations of the journeytoward tenure at the University of Wisconsin-

Madison.Two sessions of the seminar were devoted to

student participants presenting some aspect oftheir own research to a small group. In the finalsession, Betty Malen talked about living the lifeof a researcher, deciding what's important, fit-ting in family and leisure activity, working withcolleagues, and generally described the featuresof a research career in today's research univer-

sity. ~ ~ ~

White (Stanford University) and Paul A. Win-ter (The Ohio State University).

This year, financial support for the eventwas provided by UCEA, AERA (Division A),and the generous contributions of participantsfrom the past 14 years. UCEA coordinates theNational Graduate Student Research Seminaralong with the help of the Planning Committeeformed by the three sponsoring institutions.This year's Planning Committee members werePaul V. Bredeson (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Paula A. Cordeiro (University ofConnecticut), William P. Foster (Indiana Uni-versity), Wayne K. Hoy (Rutgers University),R. J. S. MacPherson (University of Tasmania),Betty Malen (University of Washington),Martha M. McCarthy (Indiana University).Hunter N. Moorman (U.S. Department ofEducation, OERI), Ulrich C. Reitzug (Univer-sity of Wisconsin-Milwaukee) and C. JohnTarter (St. John's University).

For several years, funding for the Seminar hasbeen problematic. Outgoing AERA Vice Presi-dent McCarthy has worked this year to seeksupport for the seminar from the AERA generalbudget for any division wishing to hold such aseminar. Incoming Vice President JosephMurphy (Vanderbilt University) and UCEADirector Patrick Forsyth have appointed ajointcommittee, chaired by David L. Clark (U. ofNorth Carolina-Chapel Hill), to seek a perma-nent solution to the funding difficulties. Inquir-ies and suggestions about the seminar and itsfunding should be directed to the UCEA offices at

The Pennsylvania State University.

The 40 participants in the 1994 NationalGraduate Student Research Seminar in Educa-tional Administration were: Mamadou Bane(University of Kansas), Ellen Barber (HofstraUniversity), Peter A. Battaglia (University ofWisconsin-Madison), Jeanie Bernard (Univer-sity of New Orleans), Jinx Bohstedt(Vanderbilt University), Brian O. Brent

VIDEO TAPESPreparing School Principals and School Communities

for the Inclusion of Students with DisabilitiesThe producers highly recommend viewing both videos of this two tape set as a part of

preparation programs for leadership development and school community discussions and staffprofessional development seminars or workshops.

Two Faces of Inclusion: The Concept. and the PracticesThe fIrst of this two video set combines the thoughts of leading scholars with the actions and

advice of practicing teachers, principals, parents, and leading special education administrators.This tape defmes what inclusion is and is not in an informal conversation with the viewer. The tapegets to the heart of the inclusion debate and suggests how to start and maintain the momentum tochange teaching and learning for all students. Narrated by Lou Brown of the University ofWisconsin-Madison, Doug Biklen from Syracuse University and Tom Skrtic and Wayne Sailorfrom the University of Kansas. Running length: 56 minutes. VHS only.

Facing Inclusion Together Through Collaboration and Co-teachingThe second video depicts collaboration and the co-teaching of professionals from regular and

special education. Elementary, middle school and high school strategies are highlighted. Specificattention is given to negotiating new relationships betweeli teachers, the ownership of the classroomand teaching styles directed to all students in their shared classrooms. Narrated by Marilyn Friendfrom Indiana University and Purdue University at Indianapolis. Running length: 48 minutes. VHS

1. How did you become involvedwith UCEA?

I was familiar with UCEA as agraduate student but because it was thepre-convention days I did not have theopportunity to be actively involved. Ithen taught for 3 years at Ohio Univer-sity, but they were not a member ofUCEA. However, at the New Profes-sors forum in San Francisco, I attendedmy first UCEA sponsored activity. In1986, I actively began involvement inthe organization when I was appointedPSR for Penn State.

2. What kinds of goals do youhave for UCEA in the coming year?

My primary goal is to continue tohelp UCEA exert leadership in an era ofreform. My concern is that we in theprofessoriate may be left behind. Weneed to be highly involved in adminis-trative preparation reform at the collegeand state level. Also, we need to look atwhat our definition of professionalknowledge is and how it is derived.

scholars all over the world.At this important juncture in the history of the

Steering Committee on Knowledge and Re-search, the officers, Executive Committee, andexecutive director would like to recognize thegenerous efforts of a great number of peoplewho played key roles in bringing phase one ofthis project to completion. They did so withoutcompensation and with extraordinary commit-ment. Steering Committee Chair Wayne K.Hoy spent innumerable hours planning, writ-ing, reviewing, editing, and shepherding theproject to meet highly unrealistic timelines.The Study Teams, especially their distin-guished chairs (Kofi Lomotey, Brian Rowan,David L. Clark, Robert O. Slater, William L.Boyd, Martha M. McCarthy, and James G.Cibulka), gave more to this project than can beimagined. In addition to their chairs, study teammembers included (alphabetically): Terry A.Astuto, Lee Bolman, Barry L. Bull, Nelda H.Cambron-McCabe, Bruce S. Cooper, GaryM. Crow, William P. Foster, Alan K.Gaynor, Henry Giroux, Ellen Goldring,James W. Guthrie, Ann Weaver Hart, BettyMalen, Catherine Marshall, Evangeline M.MacJamerson, Mary McCaslin, Douglas E.Mitchell, Theresa Perry, Penelope Peterson,Richard A. Quantz, Richard A. Rossmiller,Gail P. Sorenson, Robert J. Starratt, andPaul W. Thurston. The profession is in theirdebt.

Not least of all, the Consortium thanks themany individuals who contributed by submit-ting syllabuses, nominations of classics, com-mentary, and critiques of the various draft docu-ments. A special word of thanks to Jim Bittkerof McGraw-Hill who recognized in this projectthe potential benefits of a new technology andwon the approval and financial support of hiscolleagues to see it through. Finally, the UCEAstaff is to be commended for devoting its ener-gies to this project, even when it was frustratingand seemingly hopeless.

UCEA,in collaboration with McGraw-Hill,proudly presents these materials for use andcomment. What we hope to have placed beforeyou is a vital, self-critical, and contemporarylook at what we think we know as an appliedfield. All users are welcome to help improve theproject by expressing their views.

Now that Educational Administration: TheUCEA Document Base is available for use, andwithin the next six months, the ExecutiveCommittee will appoint an editorial board toinstitutionalize regular insertions into thePrimis system. Like all UCEA boards, termsof service on these boards are for three yearsand renewable for one term. Applications andnominations for service on the board will beaccepted until the time of appointment by theExecutive Committee.
