Abstract

The importance of linking research results to practice is widely acknowledged but rarely implemented. Recently, an attempt was made to improve school performance by analyzing school climate and, as necessary, developing techniques to improve climate and thereby improve school performance at Southeast High School, a pseudonym. School leaders should consider the resources they have within their organization and leadership as bricolage. As budget constraints continue, a principal can use bricolage to make more innovative use of his resources in the form of professional knowledge, instructional materials, and human capital. This paper is intended as a guide to assist working administrators in using research in school improvement projects.
