Due Thursday

Instructional leadership is often viewed as synonymous with classroom observations and direct teaching of students and teachers.

Write a 250- to 300-word response to the following:

• How do you define instructional leadership?
• How have the readings influenced your definition?
• What are the responsibilities of an instructional leader?
• What are the similarities and/or differences between instructional leadership and educational leadership?

Include your own experience as well as 2 citations that align with or contradict your comments as sourced from peer-reviewed academic journals, industry publications, books, and/or other sources. If you found contradicting information to what your experience tells you, explain why you agree or disagree with the research.
