title: Minimum level of teachers' performance and students' achievement in volleyball skills.
abstract: The purpose of this study was to establish the minimum performance by teachers on the Qualitative Measures of Teaching Performance Scale required to influence students' achievement of volleyball skills. Beginning eighth-grade students and 14 teachers were examined over an instructional three-week volleyball unit. Teachers who scored 40 to 53 points were not as effective as those who scored above 55 on the 100-point scale. In this context a score at least in the mid-fifties was desirable.
