Educational leadership in the age of technology: The new skills

Abstract

This article analyzes the concept of educational technology leadership. It is argued that leadership in the domain of educational technology is different in various ways from leadership in general. In particular, the skills underlying technology leadership need to be identified so they can be incorporated into training programs for teachers and school administrators. It is concluded that this is a critical research area because many educational technology efforts fail due to lack of good leadership at all levels of school systems. © 1992 Taylor & Francis.
