Donaldson quoted in BDN article on ways to make more successful teachers
Gordon Donaldson, professor emeritus of education at the 91±¬ÁĎ, was quoted in the  article, “Making more good teachers is hard, but here are ideas for how to try.” The quality of school leadership can have a significant influence over teachers’ job satisfaction, according to the article. Administrators have control over many things, such as hiring, instruction and professional development, as well as setting the tone of a school, the article states. “Most researchers would say effective teachers are affected very significantly by the school-level culture, and that’s where leadership comes in,” Donaldson said.
