Information Utilization of Beginning Principals in School Restructuring.

Kirby, Peggy C.; Bogotch, Ira

Journal of Educational Administration, v34 n2 p5-23 1996

Summarizes a Louisiana study that asked teachers and new principals in 24 restructuring schools to assess their level of involvement in shared decision making, the kinds of information used to reach decisions, and their perceptions of various information sources' usefulness. Results showed high involvement but little valuing of information beyond the group's collective knowledge. (MLH)
