“It’s Useful But…”: Using Positioning Theory to Compare Teachers and Principal Views on Teaching Strategies GOLD®

Qinghua Chen

Grounded in positioning theory, this empirical study examines 15 storylines from interviews with Head Start lead teachers and principals when they define themselves into different positions based on their experience with the Teaching Strategies GOLD (TS Gold) system. Findings provide a better understanding of how differently teachers and principals report their usage of TS Gold, how they perceive the system, and what possible changes they suggest for improved application of the tool at Head Start schools.
