Praxis 5511 Practice Test Practice Question
Scenario/Extract:
Luanne Watson was a teacher for 20 years before she became an administrator. "The most important thing I can give to my teachers is respect for what they do each day." said Watson....
"Even the newest and least experienced teachers blossom when they know they have the respect of their principal," said Watson. "It encourages people to continue to work hard and give 110 percent because they want to live up to the expectations of someone who understands and admires their work."
Mutual respect fosters an excellent working relationship. When the time comes that there is a difference of opinion, it is not taken personally, and progress can be made.
-Gary Hopkins, from "Principal Traits That
Teachers Appreciate"
The content of the passage suggests that it was primarily intended for which of the following audiences?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The passage primarily addresses the needs and concerns of administrators, focusing on policy implementation and resource allocation, which are crucial for effective school management. Educators, while relevant, are more directly involved in classroom practices rather than administrative strategies. Pre-service teachers, who are still learning foundational concepts, may not find the administrative insights applicable to their training. College professors typically engage in higher education discussions, which differ from the passage's focus on K-12 administration. Thus, the content aligns best with the interests of administrators.
