In contrast, the teaching population still reflects that outdated homogenous template: "predominantly white and female," middle-class, and unilingual. This exploratory study examined…

Ward, James Gordon; Hildebrand, Alexandra – NASSP Bulletin, 1988
This study concludes that a 1985 Illinois instructional leadership mandate does not provide enough incentive or necessary resources for school principals to change their behavior to comply with the legislation.

A self-assessment checklist should report teachers' perceptions about degree of implementation, difficulty level, and…
