UF’s education dean named among the nation’s best

Glenn E. Good of the University of Florida has been recognized as one of The 30 Most Influential Deans of Education in the U.S. by Mometrix Test Preparation. A recently published article honored “an outstanding group of people for their contributions to the field of education and the impact they've had on the next generation of teachers.”

Good, who ranks No. 14 on the list, was appointed dean of UF’s College of Education in September 2011. He is nationally recognized for his spotlight on research, which mainly focuses on gender issues in education, counseling interventions and psychosocial well-being.

Earlier this year, AC Online named the University of Florida the No. 1 school in the country in terms of having the best online teaching degree. Good himself was recently named to the blue-ribbon International Advisory Panel for the Emirates College for Advanced Education, a panel affiliated with the Abu Dhabi Education Council. He is the author or co-author of five books and more than 80 journal reports and book chapters.

Researchers analyzed ranking systems, honors, awards and commendations to determine the top deans in the country. That data was then compiled, organized and ranked. The complete list can be found out http://www.mometrix.com/blog/the-30-most-influential-deans-of-education-in-the-united-states/.
