Book A Study of Influential and Effective Supervisory Roles as Perceived by the Primary Teachers in Newfoundland and Labrador

Download or read book A Study of Influential and Effective Supervisory Roles as Perceived by the Primary Teachers in Newfoundland and Labrador written by Frederick Samuel Bullen and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the basic underlying assumptions of this study was that supervision is a function of various roles in any educational system. Taking this as a frame of thought, this study was designed to identify and analyze the supervisory roles which primary teachers perceive as being influential and effective in helping teachers improve the content, processes and outcomes of their work in the school or classroom. The major problem of this study was: Which supervisory roles are perceived as influencing or affecting teachers' behavior and to what extent are the various influential roles perceived as being effective in improving teachers' behavior? It was hypothesized that the primary teachers of Newfoundland and Labrador would perceive those supervisory roles that are close to them in physical distance to be more influential and more effective than those roles that are far removed from the classroom teacher. -- The 300 primary teachers who were randomly selected to participate in the study were requested to complete a nine page questionnaire. Firstly, the sample teachers identified the supervisory roles (from a list of 15 possible supervisory roles which exist in the schools, school districts, Department of Education, Newfoundland Teachers' Association and Memorial University) that they perceived as influencing or affecting their behavior. Secondly, the teachers indicated (on a four point scale ranging from 4 - very effective to 1 - ineffective) the extent to which they perceived the influential roles as being effective, that is, the extent to which the influential roles served to improve the teaching-learning process. -- The roles perceived to be most influential were: principal, board supervisor, district superintendent, 'other teacher', board specialist, and vice-principal. The same roles were included among those roles perceived as being the most effective. Of all roles considered, the principal's role was perceived as being the most influential and the most effective in serving to improve the content, processes and outcomes of the teacher's work in the school or classroom. Certain school and teacher variables were related to teachers' perceptions of the most influential and the most effective roles. These related variables were: size of town in which school is located, population of area served by the school, grade or grades taught, type of school board, size of school, teaching experience, and academic and professional training. -- The implications of this study are very clear. According to teachers' perceptions, many supervisory roles influence teachers' behavior and also help teachers improve their work in the school or classroom. However, teachers' perceived influence and effectiveness of supervisory roles decreases as the physical distance between the incumbent of the role and the teacher increases. There is little doubt that the incumbent in supervisory roles, to be effective in helping teachers improve the teacher-learning process, must work directly with teachers and must be close to the teacher he/she is trying to help.

Book Teachers  Perceptions of Their Supervisors  Feedback on Their Professional Growth and Collaboration Throughout the Teacher Evaluation Process

Download or read book Teachers Perceptions of Their Supervisors Feedback on Their Professional Growth and Collaboration Throughout the Teacher Evaluation Process written by Jennifer Miller and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This qualitative research study examined teachers' perceptions regarding the feedback provided by their supervisor on their instructional practice, the impact of the supervisory model on teachers' professional growth, and the teacher-supervisor relationship. The participants were teachers from a district in southeastern Pennsylvania. There were 61 teachers that participated in this study. A researcher-designed survey, with Likert-scale and open-ended questions, was used to collect data. This survey was approved by an experienced educator panel. To further investigate participants' perceptions, the researcher interviewed 12 teachers utilizing researcher-designed and experienced panel approved questions. The results of this study indicated that teachers perceived the dialogue component of the supervisory process to be valuable. The teachers, who took part in this study, found their most recent observational rating as an accurate representation of their performance. The perceptions of these teachers indicated that teachers valued the feedback from their supervisor because the feedback afforded an opportunity for self-reflection about their instruction or classroom environment. The results of this study also revealed that teacher-supervisor relationships varied for reasons beyond the supervision model in place. The data collected in this study may be helpful for administrators and teachers to analyze their current supervisory model and its subsequent impact on teachers and supervisors.

Book Supervising Student Teachers

Download or read book Supervising Student Teachers written by Alexander Cuenca and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The student teaching experience is often considered one of the most influential aspects of teacher preparation. Key in the success of student teaching is the university supervisor. During the student teaching experience, the university supervisor is mainly responsible for helping pre-service teachers relate university coursework with the situated experiences in schools. However, much like the various other spaces and places in teacher education, facilitating teacher learning is an incredibly complex endeavor. This edited volume addresses the complexities of supervising student teachers from three distinct vantage points. First, salient issues regarding the supervision of student teachers such as the preparation of novice supervisors, negotiating power in the student teaching triad, and the low status of clinical teacher education are examined. Second, different pedagogical frameworks for the work of supervision are provided such as care theory, teacher education for democracy, and social justice. Finally, future directions for field-based teacher education are discussed, such as a call to reconsider where supervision takes place, the necessity to develop a pedagogy of supervision, 21st century trends facing clinical teacher education, and the value added by university supervisors to teacher development. Each of these chapters engage the supervision of student teachers through a mix of research, theory, and personal stories from the field. As such, this edited volume is designed for new supervisors, veteran supervisors, and supervision scholars.
