Features: "101 Suggestions for Principals (New Edition)" is led by Wang Tiejun, a renowned expert in educational management and principal training in China, and is meticulously crafted by 14 distinguished principals from Jiangsu Province, a famous educational powerhouse in China. The book features vivid narratives, presents unique educational philosophies, and highlights the influence of principals. The earlier version of this book, published in October 1999, has received widespread acclaim since its release, becoming a staple reference for many principals—both on their desks and bedside tables—as their "advisor." It has been reprinted nine times and remains in high demand. "101 Suggestions for Principals (New Edition)" respects and focuses on factual material, including historical, current, school-based, inter-school, and international perspectives, but it primarily reflects the personal characteristics, educational philosophies, and distinctive practices of principals. The book is structured into three major sections: "Principal Profile," "Principals Discuss Success," and "Principals Discuss School Governance." Within the "Principals Discuss School Governance" section, principals elaborate on the following topics: (1) School Decision-Making; (2) Educational Services; (3) Educational Management; (4) School Culture; (5) Human-Centered Management; (6) School-Based Management; (7) Teacher Management; (8) Educational Reform; (9) Curriculum Reform; (10) Teaching Reform; (11) Educational Research; (12) Australian Education. In each of these sub-sections, principals contribute multiple articles to explore the respective themes, sharing their firsthand experiences of educational success to address hot topics that concern most principals, offering readers invaluable insights.
