Book excerpt: The purpose of this research study was to determine whether a relationship exists between student achievement, as measured by school Quality of Distribution Index score, and school leadership based on staff perceptions of school leadership, as measured by the Survey of Supervisory Behavior. The leadership of seven schools was assessed by staff members in five different sub scales of leadership domains: human relations, trust/decision making, instructional leadership, control, and conflict. The seven schools sampled were comprised of four rural or county schools and three city schools. The subjects for this study were principals of standalone schools containing grades five, six, seven, and eight or some combination of the four grade levels. All 60 respondents to this study were teachers from a rural southern state. Of the respondents, 48.33% held a Bachelors degree, 71.66% had been at their schools six years or more, 81.66% had taught for six or more years, 95.00% were white, and 91.66% of participants were found to be teaching in their subject area. The survey instrument was comprised of five domains. All five domains and the instrument were correlated with QDI to determine whether relationships exist. None of the five domains were found to be statically significant in relation to QDI. Additionally, the Survey of Supervisory Behavior Instrument was not found to be statistically significant in relation to QDI.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effective school leadership has become a priority of educational policy due to its perceived importance in improving and sustaining student achievement. However, leadership is not a unilateral act as perceptions from followers affect the ability of leaders to influence the school outcomes as measured by student achievement. Previous research suggested a relationship between educational leadership and school climate, and between school climate and student achievement. The focus of this study was to explore an alternative measure of discrepancy in the perceptions of leadership behaviors between principals' self-report and teachers' report, and to examine relationship among this discrepancy measure, school climate, and student achievement. This quantitative correlational study collected data from two secondary data sets: (a) the data from a previous study by Courtney Fee in 2008 on perceptions of leadership behaviors and school climate; and (b) the reports on student scores in the standardized tests published by the Department of Education of the state of Tennessee. Through multiple linear regression analysis, the findings suggested that school climate was significantly related to student achievement while the magnitude of perception discrepancy of leadership behaviors between teachers and their principals was not a significant predictor of student achievement. The study provided further insights into understanding the relationship among educational leadership, school climate, and student achievement. Recommendations and suggestions for future research were discussed.

Purser and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of this study was to determine if relationships existed between the 21 instructional leadership behaviors identified by Marzano, Waters, and McNulty (2005) and elementary student academic achievement in the areas of reading, writing, and science as measured by the state accountability test (STAAR). A total of 25 principals representing 25 elementary school campuses completed the Adapted School Leadership Behaviors Survey (ASLBS). This survey was adapted from the School Leadership Behaviors Survey (SLBS) Schindler (2012) and used to assess principal self-perceptions of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors as they relate to campus student achievement. Correlational analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between elementary school principals’ perception of their 21 instructional leadership behaviors and student achievement as measured by the state assessment (STAAR) Percent at Phase-in Satisfactory Standard or Above (Sum of All Grades Tested) in the subjects of reading, writing, and science. The findings of the study would suggest that there were some weak uphill (positive) relationships between the 21 instructional leadership behaviors and campus student achievement. However overall the correlations found could be described as having a range between no linear relationship and a moderate downhill (negative) relationship. For purposes of this study, correlations where -.30 ≤ r ≤.30 were deemed too small to discuss in detail but are included in the statistical tables for reference. Negative notable correlations were found between the instructional leadership behaviors of change agent, contingent rewards, flexibility, intellectual stimulation, involvement in curriculum and instruction optimizer, and outreach and one or more of the STAAR tested subjects of reading, writing, and science. Of all the positively correlated, none were statistically significant. The leadership behavior of Change Agent was negatively correlated to writing (r = -.518) and statistically significant (p=.008). The leadership behavior of Contingent Rewards was negatively correlated to science (r = -.412) and statistically significant (p=.041). The leadership behavior of Involvement in Curriculum was positively correlated to writing (r = -.419) and statistically significant (p=.037). These three leadership behaviors showed a moderate downhill (negative) relationship to campus academic achievement. Of the three correlations which were found to be negative and at a statistically significant level (p≤ .05), the greatest negative correlation found was where r = -.518 which is still a very small correlation. The sample size was such that relationships were found, but significance would not be generalizable.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quantitative study has two purposes. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate how teachers' perceptions of principals' instructional leadership affects student achievement in Texas suburban elementary schools. The secondary purpose of the study was to learn whether school demographic variables or prior achievement predict the level of instructional leadership elementary school teachers report for their principals. The primary outcome of instructional leadership was the achievement of fifth grade students who attended five select suburban elementary school districts in Texas for the 2011 - 2012 school year. The data collected for this research examined the two-year performance of the fifth grade students on their Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills reading test. Data were also collected from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade elementary teachers who attended one of the 97 participating schools from the five school districts. The teachers completed a voluntary survey during a faculty meeting. The survey asked teachers to report their perceptions of instructional leadership. The survey questions tapped four primary areas of instructional leadership: setting goals, providing professional development, monitoring and providing feedback, and establishing high standards. The main hypothesis was that instructional leadership would have a direct effect on student achievement. A variety of statistical techniques, such as factor analysis and multilevel analyses, were utilized for this study. A factor analysis method was used to create a measure of degree for instructional leadership in schools and multiple regression methods were utilized to test the relationship between instructional leadership and school SES, ethnicity, and prior achievement. This study found a modest direct relationship between instructional leadership and reading achievement. More specifically, teachers' perceptions of instructional leadership were a marginally statistically significant and positive predictor of between school variation in student achievement in reading. Additionally, the study revealed that the school socioeconomic status, ethnic composition, and prior achievement do not predict instructional leadership. Implications of the findings for future research and practice are discussed. The electronic version of this dissertation is accessible from http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/149515

This book was released on 2012 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of the present study was to determine if a relationship existed between perceived instructional leadership behaviors of high school principals and student academic achievement. A total of 124 principals and 410 teachers representing 75 high school campuses completed the School Leadership Behaviors Survey (SLBS), an instrument derived from 21 principal instructional leadership behaviors purported to relate to student achievement (Waters et al., 2003). Correlation analyses were used to analyze relationships between principals' and teachers' perceptions of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors and student achievement as indicated by campus average achievement scale scores in mathematics, social studies, science, reading, and English language arts. In addition, correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between the congruence of principals' and teachers' perceptions and student achievement. The study revealed that principals' and teachers' perceptions of instructional leadership behaviors, and congruence between perceptions, were not related to student achievement (average effect size). However, when each of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors was examined individually, statistically significant relationships were found. Positive correlations were found between student achievement and 3 of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors: (a) flexibility, (b) input, and (c) outreach as self-perceived by principals. In addition, principals' perceptions on one instructional leadership behavior (discipline) produced a negative correlation with student achievement. Teachers' perceptions of the principals' instructional leadership behaviors positively correlated to student achievement on 2 of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors: (a) ideals/beliefs and (b) order. When differences in principals' and teachers' perceptions were examined, 12 of the 21 instructional leadership behaviors produced a negative correlation to student achievement: (a) communication, (b) contingent rewards, (c) culture, (d) discipline, (e) flexibility, (f) focus, (g) ideals/beliefs, (h) input, (i) optimizer, (j) order, (k) resources, and (l) situational awareness. These results indicated that, as principals' and teachers' perceptions of the instructional leadership behaviors were closer together (high congruency), student achievement increased. The results of the study confirmed that certain instructional leadership behaviors of the principals related to student achievement. The findings concerning the congruence between principals' and teachers' perceptions have encouraging potential in explaining student achievement.
Book Synopsis Relationship Between Principals' Sense of Achievement and Teachers' Perceptions of Their Principals' Leadership Behaviors by : Javaid Edward Siddiqi

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between principals' sense of achievement and teachers' perceptions of their principals' leadership behaviors. This was determined by examining job satisfaction of principals and leadership style using the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ) and the School District's Climate Survey. The population for this study was teachers and principals in a large suburban school district in the Richmond, VA area. Participating schools were selected using a convenience sample based upon those in the school district's annual school climate survey rotation. Of the district schools scheduled for the climate survey, only those that had their principal in place for a minimum of 1 year were chosen to participate. There were nine schools on the cycle for the 2011-2012 school year that met this criteria, yielding 9 principals and approximately 500 teachers. Data were collected from 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The principals were asked to complete the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire Sense of Achievement subscale survey. Teachers in the selected schools had recently participated in the School District's Climate Survey. Data for this study came from the Leadership subscale of the survey. Descriptive statistical analysis revealed that principals generally are satisfied with the sense of achievement they have in their jobs. Data suggest they are most satisfied with having the opportunity to do something worthwhile and less satisfied with seeing the results of their work. Descriptive statistical analysis revealed that teachers generally are satisfied with their principals' leadership behaviors. A Pearson correlation was run to determine the relationship between the mean scores of the principals' sense of achievement and the teachers' perceptions of their principals' leadership behaviors. The data revealed that there was no statistically significant relationship between teachers' perceptions of their principals' leadership behaviors and principals' sense of achievement. While no significant relationship between the two data sets was found, analysis supports the need for principals to be satisfied with their jobs in order to create the open climate necessary for teachers to cultivate a collaborative approach to their craft. Teachers in an open climate are more likely to cooperate and are more committed to their job and each other.

Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify the instructional leadership behaviors that distinguish effective suburban school in Northeast Ohio to reach conclusions about the contextual factors that influence the nature and exercise of the instructional leadership in schools. This research was conducted for the following purposes: (a) to determine if a significant relationship between principal self-perceived instructional leadership behavior and student performance, (b) to determine if a significant relationship between teacher perceived principal instructional leadership behavior and student performance, (c) to determine the extent principals' instructional leadership behavior scores, as perceived by principals, principal experience and student socioeconomic status (SES) explain the variance in student performance, (d) to determine the teachers' perceptions of principal instructional leadership behavior, teacher experience and student socioeconomic status (SES) explains the variance in student performance. This study followed a descriptive and comparative research design. A version of the Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale (PIMRS) developed by Hallinger (1984) was sent to 1,454 Ohio middle school principals and teachers, and 505 survey respondents were used. Results indicated that both principals and teachers perceive framing school goals as the most important instructional leadership behavior. Other results show that student socioeconomic status and framing schools goals were perceived to explain the variance in student performance in middle schools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alarmed by mounting evidence of a national shortage of qualified and willing principals, the authors surveyed or interviewed over 200 school principals from across the country to find out why so many are leaving the profession and how those who stay manage their work. They discovered that regardless of a principal's race, gender, school level, geographic region, or tenure, there was a remarkable consistency in the challenges identified and suggestions given for revamping the role of the American principal. Featuring stories shared by practicing principals, this timely volume: offers fresh insights on ways to both attract and retain good principals; shows how successful principals reconcile their expectations and hopes with the realities and disappointments encountered in their work; examines issues common to all principals, such as time management, staff evaluations, keeping the focus on instruction, community expectations, and pursuing a balanced life; presents strategies that principals have used to make their role more effective and more attractive; and provides practical ideas for coping with the present and envisioning the future, including alternative principal models.
