Best Interests of the Student: Applying Ethical Constructs to Legal Cases in Education

Autor Jacqueline A. Stefkovich, William C. Frick
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 mai 2021
Best Interests of the Student presents both a theoretical model for guiding educators as they confront legal and ethical dilemmas in their schools, as well as highly accessible and annotated court cases for exploration. The authors introduce an ethical decision-making model that focuses on strategies for determining what actions are in the "best interests of the student," and demonstrates the application of this theoretical model for examining legal and ethical dimensions of court cases. Discussion questions at the end of each case encourage readers to examine issues from differing viewpoints, helping them to become more self-reflective school leaders who can effectively address legal dilemmas in their own contexts. This important text is a valuable resource for both aspiring and practicing school administrators and leaders.
This thoroughly revised edition features:
• An entirely new chapter on conceptual and empirical insights grounding our understanding of students’ best interests
• 10 new legal cases reflecting recent developments in school law including educational needs of transgender students, immunity for student searches, conflicts between religious expression and free speech, educators’ access to students’ cell phone data, education for children of undocumented immigrants, and access to literacy as a fundamental right
• A focus on preparing school leaders to meet the Professional Standards for Educational Leaders (PSEL)
• Updated information and references throughout to reflect current context, resources, and education policy

Recenzii

"Best Interests of the Students is an ideal book to use in preparing school administrators. It provides a readable, accessible, thoughtful consideration of pertinent legal cases; gives readers an understanding of different perspectives on the cases; and raises questions to consider these legal rulings from an ethical perspective. I know of no other book on the market that offers such a thoughtful consideration of the intersection of law and ethics for school administrators and would-be administrators."
--Norma T. Mertz, Professor Emerita, Educational Leadership and Policy Studies, University of Tennessee

"Within this broad theme, the authors examine students’ best interests in the categories of school curriculum, governmental immunity, academic standards, and the rights of students to equality, equity, and equal protection under the law. Professors and instructors who teach in educational leadership or curriculum studies programs will find Stevkovich and Frick’s book unique because it links ethical considerations and legal principles in dozens of case studies that the authors developed from actual court decisions.  Each case study is followed by questions that can help guide classroom discussions."
