Looking through Different Lenses: Teachers' and Administrators' Views of Accountability
Jones, Brett D.; Egley, Robert J.
Phi Delta Kappan, v87 n10 p767-771 Jun 2006
Teachers and principals don't always agree about the effects on education of accountability systems based on high-stakes testing. Mr. Jones and Mr. Egley look at the implications of these differing perceptions and suggest some strategies for creating a climate in which teachers and administrators can move forward on improving student learning. (Contains 13 endnotes.)
