3. Just Walking Through Isn’t Enough “Our survey results provide evidence that walkthroughs are principals’ primary source of information about teachers’ effectiveness. However, if they do not use these walkthroughs to support professional development or other human resource practices, the information they gather is unlikely to be beneficial.” Grissom & Loeb, p. 16
