A Preliminary Meta-Analysis of Teacher Leadership
Journal Title: Journal of Education and Literature - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The major function of teacher leadership is to properly lead and positively influence others to make correct decisions for school and learning effectiveness. The purpose of this article was to investigate the relationship between teacher leadership practiced by school administrations and all teachers and school outcomes. By using quantitative meta-analysis of research reports from different countries, the 12 studies that met our selection criteria were further analyzed. We found a large effect size (.485) for the influence of teacher leadership on school outcomes, including teachers’ job satisfaction, organizational culture and climate, and student achievement and motivation. Among them, the majority of the studies (n = 8) used transformational leadership as the measure of teacher leadership.
