The Effect of Demographics on the Implementation of the Principal Walkthrough

The purpose of this quantitative study was to research how school and principal demographics influence a principal’s implementation of the walkthrough process.

Principals from New Jersey were administered a survey to provide insight into how they implement the walkthrough process in their schools. The findings suggest that socioeconomic status and level of principal experience have no influence on how walkthroughs are implemented; however, the findings also suggest that level of principal experience does have an impact on whether or not principals share the results of walkthroughs with teachers.
