Miranda  \nAbstract  \nWhen it comes to generating better practices, feedback – a fair representation of professional performance – plays a crucial role due to its transformational power of enhancing skills, which helps ensure high-quality teaching in the classroom. However, principals’ lack of time, lack of knowledge of curriculum content, and lack of training are the causal factors for ineffective feedback. This paper presents elements that make K-12 principals’ feedback effective. Feedback must be given within a 24-hour period after each supervision or evaluation; it must also be descriptive, specific, understandable and dialogical while communicating through constructive dialogue.  \nThe English word feedback has been spoken and used worldwide as a synonym for relevant information given to someone to improve performance. Feedback is largely accepted tobe essential to all areas of modern society due to its transformational power of enhancing skills. In education, feedback has been positioned as helpful in improving professional practice because when “principals provide feedback to teachers they help them, illuminating their competencies and areas for improvement” (Papay, 2012, p. 125) .  \nAccording to Sullivan (2005) , the purpose and delivery of meaningful feedback are vital elements of the clinical supervision and evaluation process. In other words, feedback is a fair representation of professional performance and also a mechanism to improve it through support. Moreover, feedback is indispensable when the objective is to ensure high-quality teaching in every classroom.  \nHowever, proper feedback is not always given to teachers due to many reasons. For instance, school administrators may not give thorough feedback because of lack of time, lack of knowledge of curriculum content, and lack of evaluation training. Furthermore, some principals do not give teachers any sort of dialogical feedback:  \nIt saddens me that so few school leaders talk to teachers after classroom visits. Some principals don’t give feedback at all, which drives teachers crazy. (What did he think?!) . Some principals leave a post-it note on the teacher’s desk on the way out with quick jottings. (Go Tiger! Great lesson!) . Others prefer to fill out a checklist and put it in the teacher’s mailbox. Others devise their own formats for written notes (a box for “Wow”  \nand a box for “I wonder  ”) . And others email their comments. All these suffer from the lack of human contact – and the teacher not having a chance to explain the context.  \n(Marshall, 2013, p. 65)  \nIt is evident that when principals do not have sufficient time and comprehension of curriculum content, their feedback may not reflect what teachers do in their classrooms. Another aspect to consider is that most of them do not have any evaluation training or an insightful understanding of school policy. Hence, “providing instructional feedback is also complicated by local contexts, organizational constraints, and principals’ knowledge of instruction, curriculum, and contentarea pedagogy” (Wieczorek et al. , 2019, p. 358) .  \nFor feedback to be effective, principals should give it within 24 hours, with specific considerations about teachers’ practices through written and oral communication. Schut et al.(2022) strongly emphasized dialogue as an important asset to the learning process since it has to do with communicating information. Boehmer (2021) also emphasized that some analyses  \nhave demonstrated that principals can undoubtedly impact teachers’ sense of self-efficacy through appropriate feedback based on constructive dialogue.  \nAs noted above, there is an intrinsic relationship between feedback and dialogue. The main purpose of this article is to demonstrate elements that make feedback truly effective. It must be properly given after every supervision or evaluation, and also be descriptive, specific, and understandable whi","cbCaikHEV0h2VtPQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikHEV0h2VtPQ","pdf",261040,"English","# Abstract\n# The Importance of Principals’ Feedback\n## Transformational role of feedback\n## Self-efficacy and professional practice\n## Evaluation system effectiveness","[{\"question\":\"What makes principals’ feedback effective in K-12 settings?\",\"answer\":\"Effective feedback is delivered within 24 hours and is descriptive, specific, understandable, and dialogical, communicated through constructive dialogue.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is principals’ feedback sometimes ineffective?\",\"answer\":\"Ineffectiveness is linked to lack of time, insufficient knowledge of curriculum content, and limited training in evaluation and supervision practices.\"},{\"question\":\"How does dialogue relate to effective feedback?\",\"answer\":\"Dialogue is presented as central because it supports communicating information and helps shape teachers’ sense of self-efficacy through constructive, supportive interaction.\"}]","What Makes Principals’ Feedback Effective? | PDF",1792082889,18]
