This pilot study explores four nursing leaders' experiences with the ethical dimensions of leadership in education. Gathering and interpreting such data of experience fosters greater understanding of the nature of moral leadership as it is lived in nursing education. A phenomenological approach was used to collect and analyze the data. The results revealed four major themes: integrity, justice, wrestling with decisions in the light of consequences, and the power of information. These themes clarify the values that direct these leaders' actions as they mediate community needs common to educational and health care institutions.

Analysis Of Results

Early literacy development is an indicator of a child’s overall cognitive-linguistic development and affects their academic, social, emotional and behavioural skills. Research suggests that early detection in preschool years can have an important role in the prevention of academic failure. There is a lack of early literacy screening tools for Portuguese preschool children. This study aims to present preliminary data results of the development and validation of the Preschool Early Literacy Screening Tool (Rastreio de Literacia Emergente Pré-escolar- RaLEPE). A pilot study was carried out with a sample of 128 screenings, answered by the parents/caregivers of the Portuguese children in the target age groups. The analysis of results shown the reliability of the tool, with a very good internal consistency for RaLEPE total scale and the different sections. Therefore, preliminary results of this study indicate internal validity of the RaLEPE and confirm this as screening tool usefulness for early intervention childhood, to provide early diagnosis and contribute to early intervention for children with language and learning disorders.
