This book was released on 2004 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between teacher and principal leadership and its affect upon school improvement, Specifically, this study explores teachers' perceptions of teacher and principal leadership and how these perceptions impact one school's effort for school improvement. Finally, the study addresses what aspiring principals need to know about teacher perceptions of teacher leadership and the ways that teachers perceive that a principal supports and fosters teacher leadership. Using a phenomenographic approach, 13 teachers and one administrator were interviewed at a high school in a large mid-western city. In addition, field observations and document analyses were conducted. Data were analyzed using constant comparative method through which several themes were developed and later integrated into a conceptual framework. Findings indicated that teacher leadership affects school improvement and that principal leadership helps to influence, support, and sustain both teacher leadership and school improvement. By developing a sense of responsibility beyond the classroom, being role models for students and teachers, acting as professional resources for colleagues, building relationships and making connections with students, teacher leaders affect school improvement. One role of the principal is to influence, support, and sustain teacher leadership so that teacher leadership will sustain school improvement over a long period of time. Through supporting and communicating with teachers as well as building a sense of openness and trust, the principal empowers and encourages teachers to continue to improve the educational opportunities for themselves and their students. This study concludes that the role of the principal is critical in influencing, supporting and sustaining both teacher leadership and school improvement. The significant role of school improvement in education in the last five years cannot be achieved through a single person or position of authority. Principals need the essential skills to create, support, and maintain-the leadership capacity of their teachers.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While leadership, most importantly instructional leadership, is very important to the success of schools, it is just as important for principals to display instructional leadership behaviors. Instructional leaders are responsible for creating a shared vision, observing instructional and giving quality feedback, allocating educational resources, making decisions that are both driven by data and address the School Improvement Plan (SIP) to positively impact the instructional program, creating positive school, student and adult cultures, and nurturing adult learning and building teacher capacity (Stronge, Richard, & Catano, 2008). These things should be evident in the instructional program and displayed behaviors should be recognized by other school personnel, to include teacher-leaders, through the implementation of programs, systems, and routines. It would be beneficial to determine whether or not charter high school principals are displaying instructional leadership behaviors that can be recognized by other quasi-leadership personnel, teacher-leaders, who are positioned for collaborative measures in order to obtain achievement for all students. Teacher-leaders are a population to consider when observing instructional leadership or the instructional leadership behaviors of the principal. While teacher-leaders may formally or informally fulfill different roles in the school, depending on the school's needs and the principal's vision, they impact student achievement through mentoring and building teachers' instructional capacity, and by assisting in decision-making and collaborating with the school principal. Teacher-leaders should have the ability to perceive and speak to the instructional leadership behaviors of the principal. It is through the display of the instructional leadership behaviors and implementation of processes and programs that teacher-leaders are able to more accurately perceive and communicate beliefs about their principal's practices regarding instructional leadership. The academic gaps that exist in our schools are vast, but they must not continue to go unaddressed. A trusting partnership between the principal and teacher-leaders cannot only breed success for the school but also impact student achievement. This study presents findings that determine the perceptions that charter high school teacher-leaders who participated in this study have about their principals' display of instructional leadership behaviors according to the Teacher Instructional Leadership Standards (TILS).

This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a context where schools are held more and more accountable for the education they provide, data-based decision making has become increasingly important. This book brings together scholars from several countries to examine data-based decision making. Data-based decision making in this book refers to making decisions based on a broad range of evidence, such as scores on students’ assessments, classroom observations etc. This book supports policy-makers, people working with schools, researchers and school leaders and teachers in the use of data, by bringing together the current research conducted on data use across multiple countries into a single volume. Some of these studies are ‘best practice’ studies, where effective data use has led to improvements in student learning. Others provide insight into challenges in both policy and practice environments. Each of them draws on research and literature in the field.
