Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate perceptions of principals and assistant principals regarding their responsibilities as an instructional leader and building manager. This qualitative study investigated the perceptions of 38 school principals and assistant principals from Central and Southeastern Pennsylvania, regarding the various behaviors exhibited and utilized which impact the school environment while serving as an instructional leader and building manager. The study included the use of an online survey consisting of multiple-choice options, Likert-scaled, open-ended responses, and interviews. The study acknowledged principals' and assistant principals' perceptions regarding the responsibilities and behaviors required to serve students and staff as both an instructional leader and building manager. The study investigates principal behaviors and how they impact the school's educational environment. Additionally, communication, visibility, collaboration, and central administrative support are analyzed in terms of the principals serving as instructional leaders. Building managerial responsibilities relative to principal actions are examined in this research study. Individual interviews with nine participants were conducted to provide additional insight relative to their perceptions around instructional leadership and building management. The findings from this research concluded that principals must simultaneously serve as both an instructional leader and building manager. Principals shared that communication, visibility, and collaboration are behaviors necessary to serve as both an instructional leader and building manager. Response data concurred with this notion although managerial responsibilities take up a majority of a principal's time. Recommendations include suggestions for further research relative to principals as instructional leaders and building managers.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to identify the perceptions of assistant principals as instructional leaders, pre- and post-COVID. This study addressed three research questions: 1) How do assistant principals define and enact instructional leadership? 2) What supports or hinders assistant principals' efforts to engage in instructional leadership/function as instructional leaders? 3) How has instructional leadership for assistant principals (d)evolved throughout the COVID-19 response efforts? Survey participants included 59 secondary Texas Region XI assistant principals, with 10 assistant principals participating in the interview portion of the study. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was used to examine elements of instructional leadership and how assistant principals perceived their roles. Rich, thick descriptions were used to convey assistant principals' perceptions as instructional leaders pre- and post-COVID. The findings revealed that assistant principals felt they enacted instructional leadership primarily by supporting teachers, visiting classrooms, participating in professional learning communities, and building relationships with teachers outside the classroom. Assistant principals felt supported as instructional leaders when their campus principal supported their work as instructional leaders and had support from their peers. Although the assistant principals interviewed were dedicated to being instructional leaders, factors that hindered them from doing this critical work included responding to "fires," managing time, and expectations from central administration and the community. As assistant principals navigated through the 2020-2021 school year, COVID-19 affected their roles as instructional leaders, often requiring campus leaders to focus on safety protocols over instruction. At the time the study concluded, the pandemic was still affecting schools, and long-term changes were unable to be identified.

Download or read book Teacher-Leaders' Perceptions of Principal Instructional Leadership Practices in Two Mid-South Charter High Schools written by Frednardo Doryell Davis and published by . 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).

Download or read book Teachers' Perceptions of the Roles of Principals as Instructional Leaders in "distinguished" (high Performing) and "needs Improvement" (low Performing) Middle Schools in Urban Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia written by Wanda Powe Greenwood and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A total of 278 teachers participated in this study. This study was designed to examine how teachers from "distinguished" (high performing) and "needs improvement" (low performing) middle schools perceived the roles of their principals as instructional leaders who could provide schools with the necessary leadership characteristics for school improvement. This study also examined if differences existed among teachers' perceptions of their principals' roles based on school type and demographics (gender, age, years of work experience, and educational attainment). The principal leadership questionnaire (PLQ) was used to collect data based on the five factors: identify and articulate vision and provide inspiration, foster acceptance of group goals, provide appropriate model, provide intellectual stimulation, and provide individualized support. Cronbach alpha was used to establish the internal consistency of the instrument. Data were analyzed using mean scores, percentages, t-tests and ANOVA. The findings indicated that the participants had positive perceptions with strongly agreed to agreed responses on most of the questionnaire items indicating that teachers perceived their principals should possess the characteristics associated with instructional leadership. Female participants consistently agreed with higher mean scores on all five PLQ factors than did male participants. The researcher recommended that further research and a longitudinal study be conducted on this topic to examine and compare leadership preparation programs in Georgia and other states across the nation and to determine the long-term effects of instructional leadership roles on student achievement.

This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unwavering culture of continuous improvement efforts to bring about school change has irrevocably changed the role expectations for the school leader. The school leader in the 21st century is increasingly perceived as an instructional leader expected to implement whole-school reform models that can shape teacher practice and influence student outcomes. The significant changes in role expectations for school leaders present considerable challenges to an educational system that was not designed to incorporate these conceptualizations. In light of the increased acceptance of changed leadership expectations, the elements that are needed for developing, supporting, and sustaining instructional leaders who can lead systemic change efforts are frequently not present, are fragmented, or are observed at various developmental stages throughout the pK-20 pipeline. This book is centered on the learning and changed behaviors of school leaders, who engaged in a sustained job-embedded professional learning community, facilitated through a university-district partnership. The learning from the findings, suggested that job-embedded learning with their peers, can be instrumental for these principals to build the capacity to lead systemic change efforts. The findings further suggested that creating conditions for new understanding to occur, and sustained opportunities to apply new learning in context to their role, entailed a collaborative effort by a partnership involving two separate institutions with different priorities. The author makes a case for the educational pipeline, to prioritize the support and understanding of complex systemic change efforts and innovations, as they are linked to school improvement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existing literature on instructional leadership mainly examines the components, procedures, and mechanisms of instructional leadership and its influence on school performance and student academic results. The application of instructional leadership is insufficiently discussed. Moreover, despite longstanding efforts to campaign for instructional leadership’s prioritization, several studies have shown that the time devoted by principals to instructional leadership activities is inadequate. These disappointing statistics make the research on instructional leadership application most necessary. Why do principals find it difficult to put instructional leadership into action? What can help them overcome the challenges involved in applying instructional leadership? What functions of instructional leadership do school leaders tend to sidestep? New Explorations for Instructional Leaders: How Principals Can Promote Teaching and Learning Effectively answers these questions and addresses the need for additional research-informed literature on instructional leadership application. The findings of Haim Shaked’s studies, conducted over the past five years among principals working in the Israeli school system, are presented in this book in a way that can be used by researchers, policymakers, school leaders, and educators in different countries.
