Cornelius, Jeff; Harris, Felecia
Alabama Journal of Educational Leadership, v5 p19-28 Aug 2018
The purpose of this study was to investigate graduate educational leadership students' perceptions of academic readiness of content knowledge on the "Praxis" test. The study also sought to determine if statistically significant correlations existed between the different content area categories of the "Praxis" test. Data were collected through web-based surveys with items asking graduate educational leadership students (current and past) about their experience on the "Praxis" test. The instrument measured six content area categories as assessed on the "Praxis" test as follows: vision and goals, teaching and learning, managing organizational systems and safety, collaborating with key stakeholders, ethics and integrity, and the education system. The quantitative findings revealed strong correlations between specific content area categories as assessed on the "Praxis" test.
