Book excerpt: To have a restructures school, an effective principal is needed. The list of the Armenian schools was taken from the Armenian Evangelical Educational Council, and a questionnaire was given to two hundred twenty-seven full-time teachers. A research was conducted using the Armenian private schools of Beirut to test the following hypotheses (If principals empower their teachers in decision-making processes, if teachers feel they are accountable to their principals, if teachers perceive their principals to be effective, if teachers have high values in themselves and each other, then restructuring can be implemented positively and effectively) pertaining to a number of factors related to restructuring. The questionnaire consisted of thirty-one questions. A stepwise multiple regression analysis was run to find the relationship between restructuring as perceived positively by teachers and all other factors affecting restructuring. The affected factors were empowerment of teachers in decision- ...

Book excerpt: There are over 15,000 superintendents leading school districts across the United States today. Yet, despite the high visibility and prestige of the position, what superintendents actually do, on a day-to-day basis, remains mysterious to the layman and even to those in the profession. This book, authored by eight California superintendents, is a narrative telling their stories_from the professional side as well as the personal. It traces their beginnings as teachers, follows their moves into administration, and looks at the skills that they use to communicate, analyze, and succeed.
Download or read book Superintendent Principal and Teacher Understanding of and Attitudes about Accountability written by Jennifer Russell and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1989, state policymakers have steadily moved toward standards-based accountability (SBA) systems that emphasize explicit content and performance standards, systematic standardized testing, and consequences for failure to make progress in improving student achievement. Using survey and school site visit data from three states, this study assesses whether educators understand and support the standards-based accountability model that is required under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) by asking one broad question: What is the level of perceived validity and reported impact of NCLB policies in districts and schools. Results rely primarily on the superintendent, principal, and teacher survey report from the 2004-05 school year, asking to what extent are these educators familiar with state content standards and find them useful; and for their views on the state assessments and on the state accountability system as a whole, including standards, assessments, adequate yearly progress (AYP) targets, rewards, and sanctions. Results show generally positive responses regarding standards, some concern by administrators in meeting future AYP goals, and both positive and negative perceptions about assessments and the impact of the entire states' accountability system. Familiarity with standards among principals and teachers tended to be high; most superintendents viewed state test results as a valid indicator of student progress in mastering standards; most superintendents found state test results moderately useful in making decisions about their curriculum and instructional materials; most were confident about meeting current AYP targets, but concerned about meeting future student proficiency targets. Both district and school leaders reported important changes due to the SBA systems, e.g., increased staff focus on student learning, more students learning important skills, improved curriculum changes, especially of mathematics across grades. Principals were more likely to believe that accountability was beneficial to students, while teachers had more negative assessments, such as insufficient time to teach content not on the test, and accountability pressures on students, especially those with special needs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restructuring is an international phenomenon, and great stress is placed on the role of the innovative principal in the process. This book offers insights into the ways in which six principals go about leading the change process in their schools, and looks for ways of understanding why and how principals behave and think in the way they do. Its edited topical life history approach identifies key events, experiences and significant others in the lives of the case study managers, and shows how these have shaped the way they implement changes to curriculum, teaching and learning in their schools.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this qualitative study was to understand elementary school principals’ perceptions about what teachers need to know and be able to do in the classroom in order to teach all students equitably. In addition, this study sought to understand what attitudes and belief systems are needed by teachers in order for them to effectively meet the needs of all students. More specifically the researcher sought to understand whether teachers have an awareness of the culturally relevant needs specifically for disadvantaged students. For the purpose of this study, the researcher identified disadvantaged students as students of color and students in poverty. A qualitative analysis using semi-structured interviews was conducted with the help of 10 elementary school principals located in 3 northern California school districts. The researcher used a social justice and equity lens to guide the research process. The principals shared their understanding of equitable educational practices. They also reported on the challenges that they face to keep up with state and district mandates. Finally, implications and recommendations were made regarding research, practice and educational policy.
