Arizona's Instrument To Measure Standards (AIMS)
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Because students in today's undereducated society often do not possess the fundamental basics necessary for graduation, it has become unavoidable to implement a means by which to determine their readiness to embark upon the real world that awaits them after high school. The Arizona Instrument to Measure Standards (AIMS) was created as a way to measure each individual student's learning progress in relation to the Arizona Academic Standards, a set of ideals that defines "what students should know and be able to demonstrate at various stages of K-12 education" (Anonymous, 2003). The writer provides an overview of the program, as well as drawbacks for non-English-speaking students. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Basic Management Functions in the School System with the Context of Bolman and Deal’s Organizational Frames
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 10 page paper discussing the primary management practices within the school system in the context of Bolman and Deal’s four organizational frames. Bolman and Deal’s text “Reframing Organizations” (2003) deals with the concepts of frames within the workplace which employs the “usable knowledge” available from a management perspective and also addresses the failures within organizations “due to lack of imagination”. Organizations are broken into the four conceptual “frames” of structural, human resources, political and symbolic which account for the various aspects of planning, staffing, organizing, directing and controlling within any organization. The management functions within school systems can also work within these frames as they include all of the same vital components which must be managed and maintained as within corporations.
A study published by Souchet (2001) is used to show the management practices within the school system in regards to the role of a principal within a small urban setting in the Mid-Western United States. The school principal within the school setting is “also known as the middle manager and the site administrator” in organizational terms and is considered as the major managerial influence within the school as he or she must determine “whether the education is effective or ineffective, whether morale is high or low, whether the school climate is positive or negative; whether personnel are satisfied or dissatisfied; whether students achieve or don’t achieve; whether parents and the public are cooperative or uncooperative; and whether there is effective or ineffective management and leadership”.
Bibliography lists 2 sources.
