Dear Commons Community, A doctoral student, Steven Franklin, in the Education Psychology program here at the Graduate Center, needs participants for a survey he is conducting of elementary school principals. If any of you are principals or know of any who might be interested in participating, please see and/or forward the email request and link to the survey from Steven below. Thanks! Tony ============================================================ Hello, my name is Steven Franklin and am currently a 5th year PhD student at the CUNY Graduate Center. In addition, I am a School Psychologist who works for the NYC DOE. I am presently conducting a study that investigates elementary school principals' perceptions of teacher ineffectiveness. The study will also use student achievement data in order to investigate any correlation between perceived causes and student achievement. The overall purpose of the study is to add to the current literature on teacher evaluation in order to help develop a more fair and productive teacher evaluation system. My study consists of a survey that can be accessed online. I am writing to you to find out if the survey can be placed on your website and/ or emailed to principals. In addition, if a list-serve of elementary school principals in your region exists I could send them the survey myself. All responses are kept confidential. The survey itself can be accessed by copying and pasting the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WTRPFMC > > Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thank you for your support, Steven Franklin
