Receipt of feedback as a predictor of teachers' use of recommended practices

Description:
Vanderbilt University Medical Center will examine the current supervision and feedback practices in Head Start and childcare centers from teachers' perspectives. The specific aim of the study is to determine whether performance feedback is being used nationwide and whether teachers who receive performance feedback are more likely to use recommended practices. A questionnaire assessing use of recommended practices and receipt of feedback will be mailed to a nationwide sample of 1,824 teachers from Head Start programs and programs accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The effect of feedback on teachers' use of recommended practices will be examined. It is expected that results from this study will provide information about preferred supervision strategies, how performance feedback is being used by teachers, and whether teachers are more likely to use recommended practices when they receive feedback about their behavior in the classroom.
