The Role of Instructional Leadership on Teacher Induction

Focusing on teacher induction programs, the book investigates how novice teachers and those making a career change perceive their effectiveness in public high schools. It contrasts the experiences of these two groups through principal interviews, teacher surveys, and district document analysis from six suburban high schools in Illinois. The study highlights various induction models, the processes involved in integrating teachers into the profession, and the crucial role principals play in these programs.
