Summary:

"Educational leaders not only face moral and ethical decisions regarding their classrooms, schools, districts, and education institutions, but they also must consider the complexities and threats that impact their communities. Amidst the ongoing challenges of pandemics and natural disasters, this process is exceptionally daunting. Ethical Educational Leadership in Turbulent Times is an engaging, case-study-based text that assists leaders in their ethical decision-making processes during a time of turbulence and uncertainty. The book is framed by Gross's Turbulence Theory and Shapiro and Stefkovich's Multiple Ethical Paradigms of justice, critique, care, and the profession. Presenting clear explanations of theory in combination with authentic dilemmas developed by practitioners, this book will assist leaders in dealing with challenging situations in their own settings. Ethical Educational Leadership in Turbulent Times, 3rd edition is a valuable book for both aspiring and practicing educational administrators and leaders. New in this edition: Updated cases throughout to reflect contemporary issues and recent scholarship in the field; New topical case coverage on topics relating to the post-pandemic climate, race and ethnicity, social media, and culturally sensitive teaching; An entirely new chapter with cases about technology, including the strengths and weaknesses of AI in education"-- Provided by publisher.
