  • Inner Principalby David Loader

    RoutledgeFalmer 1997; US$ 57.95

    This is a fascinating account of how a principal combines the rational and emotional components of leadership to lead the transformation of a school.

    ASCD 2000; US$ 24.95

    Teacher evaluation--a term that brings fear, anticipation, stress, anxiety, or even boredom to the hearts of teachers and administrators everywhere. How can we reinvent teacher evaluation so that it really makes a difference--so that everyone in school benefits from it, so that teachers and administrators learn from it, so that students succeed as a result of it? The bad news is that many schools and districts seem to be stuck in old ruts, involving The Observation, The Behavior Checklist, and The Conference. The good news is that many districts have paved the way for teacher evaluation to actually become professional development, by using a three-track evaluation system: * Track I, for beginning teachers, promotes growth and new learning through... more...
