This research applies a survey investigation method and uses students from case schools as samples. The research background variables are ¡§a teacher¡¦s leadership skill,¡¨ ¡§students¡¦ notion of class management efficiency,¡¨ and ¡§the difference among administrations¡¦ evaluation of class management efficiency.¡¨ The association between a teacher¡¦s leadership skill and a class¡¦s management efficiency is studied. This research applies a survey investigation method and uses a vocational school from the southern part of Taiwan as the research subject. The participants are 1,569 students from a vocational school and a stratified sampling method is applied. The usage of research tools includes the following: In terms of a teacher¡¦s leading skill, Mu Jin, Chen¡¦s (1999) ¡§the self testing table of evaluating a teacher¡¦s leading skill in a classroom¡¨ is adapted. In terms of the evaluation of students¡¦ notion of class management efficiency, Chen Zong, Shen¡¦s (2006) ¡§the scale table of a class¡¦s management efficiency survey¡¨ and Jin Tang, Qiu¡¦s (2002) ¡§the scale table of a junior high school student¡¦s opinion response¡¨ are adapted. In terms of the evaluation of an administration¡¦s class management efficiency evaluation, the evaluation outcome of a related class¡¦s management efficiency announced by the studied school is used. The research showed that to male, married, long working experience, and natural science teachers, students have the notion of better leading skills. Second-year male senior high school students have a notion that teachers have better leading skills. Both male, married, professional subjects, and teachers from the National Normal University and first year and senior high school classes have better classes¡¦ management efficiency evaluated by administrations. As far as students¡¦ notion of classes¡¦ management efficiency is concerned, male, married, long working experience, and social science teachers have better conditions. Male and second-year senior high school students have better notion of classes¡¦ management efficiency. There is a significant relationship between students¡¦ notion of teachers¡¦ leading skills and classes¡¦ management efficiency and the explanation power is 44.1%. But, the explanation power of students¡¦ notion of teachers¡¦ leading skills to administrations¡¦ evaluation of class characteristics is only 2.6%. Therefore, it is inferred that under the same research subjects, there is an association between teachers¡¦ leading skills and classes¡¦ management efficiency, but it might be over-evaluated.

Small business family law firms generate jobs within the local community, but often fail because of suboptimal accounting strategies. A multiple case study was used to research the accounting strategies small business family law firm owners use to succeed in business beyond 5 years. The population for this study was three small business owners of family law firms located in West Chester, Pennsylvania. The small business family law firm owners had achieved and maintained profitability of their businesses for a minimum of 5 years. Financial literacy theory and the leadership skill model comprised the conceptual framework for this study. Data collection included semistructured face-to-face interviews with the small business family law firm owners, a review of company documents, and field notes. Thematic analysis included data from face-to-face interviews, document collection, field notes, and current literature. Themes that emerged were (a) having or obtaining some formal accounting education, (b) working with an accounting professional, (c) categorizing expenses and using formal financial reporting, (d) developing and maintaining ethical standards of billing and unearned income, and (e) utilizing accounting software. Recommendations for action included investing in accounting courses and seeking professional assistance. Small business family law firm owners may apply these results to spend more time working with clients to increase income. Increasing the success of small business family law firm owners may contribute to positive social change by providing increased employment and economic health within communities.
