[Expand Summary]
This study proposes a research-based teacher selection protocol. The protocol is intended to offer school district hiring authorities a tool to identify teacher candidates with the behaviors expected to predict effective teaching. It is hypothesized that a particular series of research-based interview questions focusing on teaching behaviors in four key areas (i.e., classroom management, organizing for instruction, implementing instruction, and monitoring student progress and potential), can be used to predict high levels of quality teaching, which lead to enhanced student performance. This study addressed the following research question: Which teaching behaviors identify effective teachers? Hiring authorities can use this empirically based protocol knowing that research supports specific response patterns by effective teacher candidates, which in turn can lead to high levels of student achievement. The findings of this research study suggest a series of research-based interview questions that focus on teaching behaviors in four key areas to predict high levels of quality teaching. The research findings may provide valuable information to administrators and central office personnel regarding interview questions and their link to predicting qualities of effective teaching during the hiring process. Hiring authorities can utilize the research-based questions in the selection process. As a result of the findings from this research, they can be confident that teachers, upon initial hire, possess key teaching behaviors reported to result in high levels of student achievement.

This study focuses on the experiences of ten novice principals involved in a principal mentoring program in a large urban school district to examine the connections of theory and practice from training received in their administrative preparation program. It sought to understand the impact of receiving support and mentoring in retaining principals. Three themes emerged from the data: (1) the importance of networking with other principals, (2) individualized support with mentors, and (3) continuous development and professional growth. The research presented will contribute to the agenda of retaining quality administrators in the field.
