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.  \nKeywords: praxis, academic readiness, content knowledge, content area categories, variables  \nGraduate leadership programs must effectively prepare educational leaders for their roles. The role includes much more than managing a curricular program (Carver, 2012) . So, how can graduate leadership programs effectively prepare educational leaders? To answer this question, it is important for graduate leadership programs to offer a curriculum grounded in the correct content knowledge. Therefore, universities offering graduate leadership programs must make a conscious effort to ensure that program curriculum has been designed to not only enable graduate students to meet standards, but also to ensure the correct standards are being utilized. As a result, it is also important for professors of graduate leadership programs to have an in-depth knowledge of the content areas assessed on the Praxis test for Educational Leadership: Administration and Supervision. Praxis tests are used in 47 states within the United States to make decisions concerning the licensing of beginning educators (ETS Praxis, 2017) . Based on past research, content knowledge plays an important role in the success of a beginning educational leader (Carver, 2012; Stein & Nelson, 2003) .  \nThe purpose of this study was to investigate graduate educational leadership students’perceptions of academic readiness of content knowledge on 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 findings addressed how educational leadership programs may be improved by investigating graduate leadership students’ perceptions of their own experiences on the Praxis test.  \nLiterature Review  \nBackground  \nThe Praxis test required for graduate educational leadership students in Alabama is comprised of 110 selected-response questions covering six content areas aligned with the Educational Leadership Policy Standards: ISLLC 2008 (ETS Praxis, 2017) . These six content areas are as follows: vision and goals, teaching and learning, managing organizational systems and safety, collaborating with key stakeholders, ethics and integrity, and the education system. In 1996, the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) developed standards for school leaders to identify a common core of knowledge, dispositions, and performances (Council of Chief State School Officers, 1996) . In 2008, the Interstate School Leadership Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) adopted new standards while retaining the structure of the six original ISLLC Standards, but with new purposes and audiences (Council of Chief State School Officers, 2008a) . At present time, the Praxis test for graduate educational leadership students in Alabama for initial licensure continues to be in alignment with the ISCLLC 2008 Standards (ETS Praxis, 201","cbCaifrcwwZlsTrn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifrcwwZlsTrn","pdf",64783,"English","# Literature Review\n## Background\n## Vision and Goals\n## Teaching and Learning","[{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study examined graduate educational leadership students’ perceptions of academic readiness of content knowledge on the Praxis test and tested whether significant correlations existed between Praxis content area categories.\"},{\"question\":\"How were the data collected?\",\"answer\":\"Researchers collected data through web-based surveys that asked current and past graduate educational leadership students about their experience on the Praxis test.\"},{\"question\":\"Which content area categories does the Praxis test assess in this study?\",\"answer\":\"The six categories are vision and goals, teaching and learning, managing organizational systems and safety, collaborating with key stakeholders, ethics and integrity, and the education system.\"}]","Graduate Educational Leadership Students’ Perceptions of Academic Readiness of Content Knowledge on the Praxis Test | PDF",1792070176,25]
