New assistant high school principal, Gwen, and veteran English teacher, Anita, disagree on Gwen’s approach to instructional leadership. Gwen’s focus as a supervisor is on raising student achievement test scores. She prefers to make brief visits to classrooms, and she knows exactly what she wants to see happening during those visits.

Principal Jim provides limited support for his new assistant principal, Gwen. ACCESS FULL MANUSCRIPT HERE: http://cnx.org/content/m19594/latest/
