Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Redesigning Supervision, active professionals in teacher education and professional development share research-based, alternative models for restructuring the way pre-service teachers are supervised.

They then present strategies designed to provide student teachers with powerful learning experiences that move beyond traditional models.

Book features: Provides three adaptable case studies that chronicle alternative approaches to supervision. Addresses specific understandings, abilities, and dispositions needed to provide high-quality supervision for beginning teachers.

Book Reimagining Instructional Supervision

Download or read book Reimagining Instructional Supervision written by Francis M. Duffy and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of instructional supervision has been relatively constant. From the days when the first colonists arrived and established schools for their children until today instructional supervision has consistently focused on the critical examination of a teacher’s classroom behavior with the assumption that supervising individual teachers could significantly improve teaching and learning throughout a school system. That assumption has proven to be flawed. The author believes that the focus of instructional supervision needs to shift off of individual teachers to focus on transforming the organization design and functioning of entire school systems. Instead of observing teachers working in their classrooms a re-imagined instructional supervision process would focus on transforming three sets of key system variables: Transform the system’s environmental relationships, transform the system’s core and support work processes, and transform the system’s internal social infrastructure. Supervising Knowledge Work describes the salient features of a re-imagined supervision process called Knowledge Work Supervision that is designed to transform entire school systems.

Book Spaces  journeys and new horizons for postgraduate supervision

Download or read book Spaces journeys and new horizons for postgraduate supervision written by Eli Bitzer and published by AFRICAN SUN MeDIA. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After centuries of barely visible incremental development, postgraduate education has experienced twenty years of considerable turbulence as governments recognise its latent power, some responding more quickly than others and each in different ways. This anthology, drawing on research, deep reflection and praxis, illustrates the current situation in a range of geographical environments that result from such interventions, or lack of them, providing readers both with information about neglected contexts, challenges and concerns and with stimulating ideas about how they might be managed more effectively.

Book Doing Supervision and Being Supervised

Download or read book Doing Supervision and Being Supervised written by Robert Langs and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is always a lively interest in the supervisory process and its explication. Courses in supervision abound and the critical role of supervision in becoming a psychotherapist is widely acknowledged. It is for this reason that this book aims to present the essentials of supervision, establish validated principles of teaching and learning, define a series of optimal supervisory precepts, consider some of the basic issues in this sometimes difficult arena, explore the supervisee's concerns as the student, and address the future of supervisory work.Supervision should be principled and properly framed, sufficiently consistent and well defined to assure the supervisee the best possible supervisory experience and the supervisor a situation with as little possibility of crisis and untoward reactions, and as much reward as possible. This book is dedicated to both teachers and students: to their growth, maturation and ultimately to better psychotherapy for their patients.

Book Designing High Performance Schools

Download or read book Designing High Performance Schools written by Francis Duffy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996-04-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When so much is being said about restructuring schools and so little is actually being done successfully, it is a pleasant breath of fresh air to read Designing High Performance Schools. There is outcome-based education, year-round schools, alternative assessment, and site-based management. There are new methods for student evaluation, a return to nongraded schools, a redesigning of grouping, and attempts to connect classroom experiences with community-based activities. Wading through this maze of possibilities and unresolved solutions comes an answer for the critical decade of the 90s. If you are a school practitioner or a consultant working with schools, here is the most practical, step-by-step guidance available on how to plan, conduct, and evaluate a comprehensive and complex restructuring. Using a model derived from the fields of socio-technical systems design, business process reengineering, knowledge work, quality improvement, and organization development, this book lays out every aspect needed for restructuring.

Book Reimagining Rehabilitation

Download or read book Reimagining Rehabilitation written by Lol Burke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-17 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to make the case for and provide some of the resources necessary to reimagine rehabilitation for twenty-first-century criminal justice. Outlining an approach to rehabilitation which takes into account wider democratic processes, political structures and mechanisms of resource allocation, the authors develop a new model of rehabilitation comprising four forms – personal, legal, social and moral. Personal rehabilitation concerns how individuals make their journeys away from offending and towards reintegration and how they can be supported to do so, whilst legal rehabilitation concerns the role of the criminal courts in the process of restricting and then restoring the rights and status of citizens. Moral rehabilitation is concerned with the ethical basis of the interactions between the individual who has offended and the people and organisations charged with providing rehabilitative services. Social rehabilitation explores the crucial contribution civil society can make to rehabilitation, exploring this through the lens of citizenship, community and social capital. Drawing on the conceptual insights offered in the late Stan Cohen’s seminal work – Visions of Social Control – and specifically his insistence that modern social institutions can aspire to doing good and doing justice, the authors argue that these values can underpin a moral pragmatism in designing social interventions that must go beyond achieving simply instrumental ends. Reimaging rehabilitation within the context of social action and social justice, this book is essential reading for students and scholars alike, particularly those engaged with criminal justice policy, probation and offender rehabilitation.

  • Author : Cal D. Stoltenberg
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2011-04-27
  • ISBN : 1135597251
  • Pages : 371 pages

Download or read book IDM Supervision written by Cal D. Stoltenberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-04-27 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third edition of this book is an updated and expanded presentation of the widely used Integrative Developmental Model of Supervision. In contrast to other volumes on clinical supervision, Stoltenberg and McNeill present a comprehensive, time-tested, and empirically investigated model of supervision, rather than a broad summary of other existing or historical approaches. In addition to presenting a model of therapist development that spans beginning through advanced training, the book integrates theory and research from numerous perspectives, including learning, cognition, and emotion, as well as an up-to-date treatment of research directly addressing the supervision process. The model also examines the role of clinical supervision from an evidence-based practice perspective and addresses issues of common factors in therapy. The impact of cultural issues in supervision and training, as well as recent work in a competencies approach to supervision and trainee development, are also examined.

The chapters address the sustainability and transferability of such solutions in order to further the dialogue in both scholarly and policy spheres.

Book Designing Your New Work Life

Download or read book Designing Your New Work Life written by Bill Burnett and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller Designing Your Life comes a revised, fully up-to-date edition of Designing Your New Work Life, a timely, urgently needed book that shows us how to transform our new uncharted work life into a meaningful dream job or company. With practical, useful tools, tips, and design ideas that show us how to navigate disruption (global, regional, or personal) and create new possibilities for our post-COVID work world and beyond. Bill Burnett and Dave Evans successfully taught graduate and undergraduate students at Stanford University and readers of their best-selling book, Designing Your Life ("The prototype for a happy life." —Brian Lehrer, NPR), that designers don't analyze, worry, think, complain their way forward; they build their way forward. And now more than ever, we all need creative and adaptable tools to cope with the chaos caused by COVID-19. In Designing Your New Work Life, Burnett and Evans show us how design thinking can transform our present job, and how it can improve our experience of work in times of disruption. All disruption is personal, write Burnett and Evans, as with the life-altering global pandemic we are living through now. Designing Your New Work Life makes clear that disruption is the new normal, that it is here to stay and that it is accelerating. And in the book's new chapters, Burnett and Evans show us step by step, how to design our way through disruption and how to stay ahead of it—and thrive. Burnett and Evans's Disruption Design offers us a radical new concept that makes use of the designer mindsets: Curiosity, Reframing, Radical collaboration, Awareness, Bias to action, Storytelling, to find our way through these unchartered times. In Designing Your New Work Life, Burnett and Evans show us, with tools, tips, and design ideas, how we can make new possibilities available even when our lives have been disrupted (be it globally, regionally, or personally), giving us the tools to enjoy the present moment and allowing us to begin to prototype our possible future.
