Assessing Instructional Leadership with the Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale
Author: Philip Hallinger
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319155334
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
This volume provides a succinct up-to-date summary of global research on principal instructional leadership as it has evolved over the past 50 years. The book’s particular focus is on the development and use of the Principal Instructional Management Rating Scale (PIMRS). The PIMRS is the most widely used survey instrument designed for assessing instructional leadership for research and practice. It has been used in more than 250 studies in more than 30 countries around the world. The authors provide a detailed conceptual and data-based description of the rationale and development of the instrument as well as the ways in which it has been used in practice. The book also provides, for the first time, a comprehensive assessment of the scale’s measurement properties. This represents essential information for future users of the instrument across different national contexts. Finally, the volume outlines an agenda for improving future research on the role of principal instructional leadership in student learning and school effectiveness.

The Ripple Effect
Author: Matthew Clifford
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 23
Book Description
Public education is a cornerstone of democracy, a prerequisite for economic recovery, and a key lever in achieving national commitment to equal opportunity for all. Although the nearly 90,000 public school principals constitute a relatively small percentage of the public education sector, their work can have a "ripple effect" on the 3.4 million teachers and 55 million PK-12 students in the United States. Principals affect school direction through policy interpretation, resource allocation, and community relations. They manage the pragmatic day-to-day school activities, from the football field to the classroom, and balance competing priorities to provide high-quality educational services to students. Although many factors in student learning have not been fully explained, leadership is the second most influential school-level factor on student achievement, after teaching quality (Hallinger & Heck, 1998; Leithwood, Louis, Anderson, & Wahlstrom, 2004; Waters, Marzano, & McNulty, 2003). Individuals know, intuitively, that an effective principal can influence school performance, but what makes for an effective principal? Nationally, policymakers and practitioners are taking up this question when designing principal evaluation systems. An explicit definition of principal effectiveness drives all aspects of evaluation system design (Clifford et al., 2012). Principal effectiveness is defined as the intended or expected effects of principals' work. Ensuring that new evaluation systems are valid, fair, and useful requires them to reflect an accurate definition of principal effectiveness. Policymakers and practitioners must create systems that provide a holistic depiction of performance and are feasible to implement in diverse school contexts. To develop definitions of principal effectiveness, policymakers must reference policy, seek principals' perspectives on their work, and review available research on principal effectiveness to create new performance evaluation designs. Principals' voices, at times, have been lost in efforts to create better performance evaluation systems. In many ways, principals are best positioned to construct a realistic and nuanced definition of effective leadership that accurately reflects the context of schooling. Research also should play a role in defining principal effectiveness because empirical studies can identify how principals influence schools, teaching, and learning--and how they do not. This brief provides a synopsis of the growing body of scholarly educational research literature on principal effectiveness. After providing a short historical overview of the changing role of school principals, the brief presents two policy perspectives on principal effectiveness and, finally, introduces a research-based framework for defining principal effectiveness. (Contains 2 figures and 1 footnote.) [Funding for this paper was provided by the U.S. Department of Education's Fund for the Improvement of Education (FIE) Earmark Grant Awards Program.].
