The Reform Movement and Ed.D. Expansion.

McLaughlin, John M.; Moore, Charles E.

The status of current doctoral administrator preparation programs is analyzed. An assessment of 17 doctorate of education programs in administration and leadership concludes that they do not differ significantly from traditional doctorate programs in education in terms of curriculum, student admissions, exit criteria, delivery format, and dissertations. A conclusion is that change and improvement of administrator preparation programs is necessary for the improvement of public schools. (15 references) (LMI)
