Performance Assessment of Residency Principal Interns on Washington Standard 5 Knowledge and Skills
Williams, Henry S.1Alawiye, Osman2
Abstract: There needs to be a shift from the "report card" type reporting of principal work to an assessment that looks at meaningful measures of the results of leaders' work. According to research studies (Bridges, 1982; Davis, 2005), assessments tend to rely on leadership traits or characteristics (inputs) rather than meaningful measures of the results of the leaders work (outcomes). The target of assessment should be to look at the leadership in relation to learning. To determine whether the 2011-12 interns are having a positive impact on students learning, we adopted Standard 5 Knowledge and Skills statements to assess interns' leadership abilities. The interns self-assessed themselves in spring 2012, and then two weeks later their building supervisors were asked to assess the interns. The result showed no significant difference between the mean scores of the interns to that of the supervising principal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Key words: INTERNS (Education);LEADERSHIP;PERFORMANCE evaluation
总结:据研究报告(桥梁,1982;戴维斯,2005),评估往往依赖于领导者特质或特征(投入),而不是领导的结果,有意义的工作措施(结果)。评估的目标应该是看领导,并不断学习。
