What Expert Teachers Think: A Look at Principal Leadership Behaviors That Facilitate Exemplary Classroom Instructional Practice
Goodwin, Janet; Babo, Gerard
Education Leadership Review of Doctoral Research, v1 n2 p65-84 Oct 2014
The purpose of this study was to rank order 21 leadership behaviors originally identified by the work of Waters, Marzano & McNulty (2003) and the impact they have on teacher instructional practice using questionnaire responses provided by past recipients of the National Teacher of the Year award at the state level (n=178) in order to expand the research base on principal leadership behaviors that improve instructional practice. Statistically significant rank order differences were found based on gender, school grade level and SES.
