- Title
Contextual antecedents of instructional leadership.
- Authors
Dwyer, David
- Abstract
The premise of this paper is that principals' activities and the success of those activities for the creation or maintenance of potent instruction in schools depends largely on the nature of principals' instructional contexts. Contextual precursors to principals' actions are identified and their relevancy described through the comparison of the behaviors of four elementary school principals in rural, suburban, and urban schools. Findings result from the analysis of a year-long, comparative field study of school principals in which data was gathered through extensive, on-site interviews and observations.
