In order to effectively meet new challenges, professors must make adjustments in venue, plan meticulously, utilize technology, distribute leadership, and implement alternative grading systems. This is a particular challenge to new professors, many who are former K–12 public school administrators. Adult instructional practices such as peer reviews, working meals, continuous movement and breaks, guest presenters, and alternative assignments must be implemented. Finally, alternative grading and assessment practices such as student/professor performance agreements can leverage a large class human resource component. By modeling effective leadership with large classes while utilizing sound principles of adult learning, professors can effectively impart the skills and dispositions vital for new school leaders in the current educational environment.  \nMaking the Shift from School Administration to University Instruction and Scholarship  \nMany of the current professors in educational administration programs have transitioned from K–12 administrative roles and positions. This can be a real challenge as they must make adjustments from their previous role as practitioner/administrator to that ofa scholar (Coleman, et al, 2006) . For many, this is a career change much later in their professional journey (Bora, 2001) . They must shift from their experiences of pedagogy or the art of the teaching of children (often teacher-centered), to andragogy (learner-centered) or the art of helping adults learn (Knowles, 1984) . The adult graduate students who come into educational administration classes, bring with them a wide-ranging amount of school-related experiences and dispositions. The qualities of these adult students are much different than those of the K–12 learners in the previous school systems in which many professors spent their formative years. Rachel (2002) offered criteria for effective  \nCAPEA Education Leadership and Administration, Vol. 21—2009  \n46 ©2010 DEStech Publications, Inc.  \nPlanning and Delivering Instruction with Increasing Class Sizes 47  \nandragogy that will be reflected in this author’s methods and examples. These include but are not limited to voluntary participation and internal motivation, performance evaluations, learner satisfaction, and learning environments that are psychologically and physically comfortable. Christian (1982) found that learners who scored low on pedagogy and high on andragogy wanted to direct their own learning but needed support. Finally, as adult learners, graduate students in educational administration programs need to know why they are learning the content before they learn it. As such, former practitioner/administrators who understand and have experience in school systems can be very effective if they can adapt from the instruction of children to the instruction of adults while at the same time transitioning into the role of a scholar in higher education systems (Bain, 2004) . What follows are a set of ideas based upon these principles.  \nPlanning and Delivering Instruction with Increasing Class Sizes in Educational Administration Program Coursework: Modeling Leadership Skills for New Professors Transitioning from K–12 Administration  \nOne thing all educators can agree upon is that effective leadership is absolutely essential for school improvement. At the same time, it is no secret that the instructional landscape related to graduate programs in educational administration and school leadership preparation is undergoing much needed change.
