Vision Of School Leadership
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. Achieving successful leadership shares myriad factors no matter the arena; from high-end corporations to mom-and-pop organizations and everything in between, these common denominators serve to establish, maintain and perpetuate the very objective facilitators seek to reach. Nowhere is this more apparent than within the academic setting, whereby the entire student base is dependent upon solid, positive leadership in order to acquire a sound education. Developing a vision of school leadership means looking well beyond conventional - and some believe outmoded - ideals and applying a more empowering, integrative approach whereby teachers and administrators interact on such a level as to garner a combination of respect and involvement from the student body. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Visual Art And Brain Development In Children
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. A child's capacity to absorb information is drawn upon from myriad different sources at any given time; that children are virtual wells of curiosity speaks to their open-mindedness when it comes to embracing concepts that some might believe is too far above their comprehension. The value of visual arts has been undermined because of this misperception, with many school districts removing arts from the curriculum as a means by which to redirect funding elsewhere in a decidedly academic prospectus. This is one of a number of reasons why parents need to introduce young children to the cognitive benefit of visual arts, inasmuch as research indicates how the correlation between artistic influence and brain development cannot be denied with the increased exposure to such aesthetic elements as color, form and expression. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
