Book excerpt: In large school districts, principal supervisors oversee groups of principals. Principal supervisors commonly have titles such as Area or Regional Superintendents, Leadership Directors or Network Leaders. They are situated in the organizational hierarchy between top district leaders (Chief-level positions) and principals, and serve as the link between these two groups. To reflect recent changes in the responsibilities of principals from a focus on school management to a focus on instruction, many school districts have re-conceptualized the role of principal supervisors based on the premise that having principal supervisors provide support to principals about issues that directly relate to teaching and learning is necessary in order to raise school performance. Using qualitative methods, this research study analyzed the role of principal supervisors as middle managers who are expected to develop the instructional capacity of the principals they supervise by examining how the organizational conditions of school districts and the practices of top district leaders and principals influence principal supervisors' work. Since there is minimal scholarship in the field of education, the conceptual framework of the study draws on theoretical perspectives about middle managers and strategy implementation from the fields of business and organizational behavior--Argyris & Schon's (1974) theories of action and Guth & MacMillan's (1986) middle management expectancy theory. Through written questionnaires and interviews with top district leaders, principal supervisors and principals in a large, urban school district, this research found that principal supervisors do not spend the majority of their time focusing on developing the instructional capacity of the principals they supervise. Rather, as a result of principal supervisors' positioning in the district's organizational hierarchy, the organizational conditions and practices of top district leaders and principals, and principal supervisors' views about their intended job functions, principal supervisors often serve as "brokers"--intermediaries between central office staff members and principals. Honig & Copland (2008) set forth the conceptualization of principal supervisors as "brokers," and the findings from this study confirm their findings. However, the results of this study extend their research by offering numerous additional ways in which principal supervisors' brokering serves central office staff members and principals. As a contribution to the existing scholarship about principal supervisors, I further distill Honig & Copland's (2008) denotation of principal supervisors as brokers by dividing principal supervisors' broader brokering functions into three more refined categories of buffering, bolstering and bridging, and providing evidence to support these distinctions. I contend that most of these brokering activities are consistent with the district goal of having principal supervisors support principals' instructional leadership. The findings from this study have a variety of implications for school districts, including the need for districts to either further refine the role of principal supervisors based on the realities of principal supervisors' daily work, or to address district organizational conditions and practices in a way that allows principal supervisors to serve their intended instructional role.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book responds to the urgent need for instructional practices that recognize student diversity and cultural backgrounds as valuable assets. As the United States continues to grapple with policies that promote culturally dominant ideologies, the opportunity gaps continue to widen for minoritized, marginalized, and otherized PK–12 students. This timely book provides a comprehensive developmental framework for implementing Culturally Responsive Instructional Supervision that fosters an educational environment that disrupts the culture of white supremacy, promotes a sense of belonging, and achieves culturally appropriate instructional outcomes for all learners. The authors show educators how to establish diverse and representative supervision teams that provide formative feedback and promote self-reflection. Schools can use this book to effectively observe, assess, and support teachers on their journey toward becoming culturally responsive practitioners. Book Features: Encourages instructional leaders to embrace their role as equity leaders and actively work to dismantle harmful educational practices. Offers strategies focused on the strengths and assets children bring to school every day, instead of the deficit-oriented perspectives reinforced by the accountability movement. Centers sociocultural identities as the key factor to providing feedback to teachers about culturally responsive practices, while maintaining rigorous expectations for student learning and academic outcomes. Includes the foundations, practical approaches, and examples of praxis for the implementation of Culturally Responsive Instructional Supervision.

Download or read book Leading Professional Development written by Mary H. Moen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how LIS schools and professional organizations can help information professionals to continue their education after finishing formal programs to keep up with the growing demands of the field. As technology rapidly advances, the need for continuing education increases at an accelerating rate. Within 10–12 years of completing formal education, most information professionals' knowledge and skills become out of date, leaving them only half as able to meet the new demands of the profession. Additionally, the increase in online education programs for LIS students can limit their connection with practicing professionals and, in some locations, their engagement with diverse populations. LIS schools and professional development organizations, however, can support professional development in new and exciting ways. Readers will learn how faculty in LIS schools are innovating their courses and providing continuing education experiences. Taking advantage of the benefits of online, digital, and experiential learning projects, they are creating meaningful, collaborative learning opportunities between students and practitioners in the field. The book also addresses how social media tools can help online students experience interactive community learning and network within the profession before they start their positions.
