A PRESERVICE AND/OR INSERVICE TRAINING PROGRAM FOR BOARD OF EDUCATION MEMBERS Purpose. The purpose of this study was to develop a preservice training program for prospective board of education members, and one that would be of appropriate use by board members already serving. Method. Current issues of indexes and other guides to sources of literature were read in search of titles pertaining to the problem of the study as well as to the questions. The guides to Dissertation Abstracts, Educational Research Information Center (ERIC), Current Index to Journals of Education (CIJE), Education Index, and the card catalog were closely scrutinized. Appropriate papers, articles, and books were read for possible inclusion in the study. Notes were taken from those sources containing data which appeared useful. These notes were separated into major categories, and decisions were made as to which materials to include in the study. This was followed by a com- puter search of ERIC, DATRIX (a search service of Dissertation Abstracts), and SRIS (a search service provided by the Phi Delta Kappa Research Service Center). Letters were sent to the state school boards associations and the state departments of education in Tennessee and Tennessee's eight for bordering states requesting information concerning qualifications school board members as well as information concerning preservice and inservice training programs for school board members. Information concerning activities that should be included in such a program was also sought. A survey of school board training practices in Tennessee was conducted. This was accomplished by means of a Questionnaire con- school structed by this investigator and mailed to the chairmen of the boards in the 146 school systems of Tennessee, the superintendents of each of these systems, and one board member other than the chairman, randomly chosen from each school system. After all the data had been collected and analyzed, a com- prehensive preservice training program for prospective board members was developed based on the data found. The program was also developed with the intention of serving as an inservice program for presently serving board members. 2 Once the school board training program was developed, it was field tested for effectiveness. The field testing situation involved a number of school board members and prospective school board members from the East Tennessee area. Summary. The problem of this study was to develop a preservice training program for prospective board of education members. The pro- gram was also developed so as to be of use by board members already serving. More specifically, the major objectives of the study were: (1) to determine if Tennessee and Tennessee's bordering states have preservice or inservice training programs for school board members; (2) to determine the qualifications for serving as a school board member in Tennessee and in Tennessee's bordering states; (3) to deter- mine if some type of preservice training program should be required of all prospective school board members; (4) to determine the types of activities a school board member should be familiar with before assuming his job; (5) to determine what a preservice and/or inservice training program for school board members should consist of and based on these needs to develop such a training program; and (6) to field test the preservice and/or inservice training program with a group of school board members and prospective school board members. Conclusions. Based upon the findings of the study, it was concluded that: (1) there had been practically no research dealing directly with preservice training for school board members; (2) there was very little formal, organized training for school board members in the state of Tennessee; (3) superintendents, board chairmen, and selected board members desired and believed that there should be better training of board members in Tennessee; (4) Tennessee's border states varied widely in their efforts to train school board members for their jobs; (5) board members should not be required to take part in a training program either before or after election or appointment; there was a need for more board member training in the state of Tennessee; (6) the preservice and/or inservice training program developed could help board members and prospective board members to become better versed and more learned in those areas and competencies needed to become an effective board member; and (7) those persons involved in the education process in Tennessee and in Tennessee's border states were interested in seeing the quality of school boardmanship upgraded. Dissertation prepared under the guidance of Dr. Robert G. Shepard, Dr. Clyde L. Orr, Dr. Charles W. Burkett, Dr. Ralph W. Clarke, and Dr. Donald H. Poole.
