The need for outstanding university supervisors who balance the
needs and interests of the student teacher, the university, and the
K-12 school has never been greater. Teacher supervisors are the
link between institutions of higher learning and public and private
schools. This work is a practical guide for university supervisors
that examines the supervisory process, the preparation necessary
for supervision, the responsibilities of the university supervisor,
the historical assumption underlying the supervisory role, and what
research tells us about effective supervision.
This work also provides background information on topics such as
discipline in the schools and curricular concerns, and summarizes
research about what the supervisor needs to know on the
philosophical, psychological, and sociological foundations of
education. Practical suggestions and sound advice are provided on
major questions and issues such as: What should I tell the
cooperating teacher about writing final evaluations? What should I
tell the student teacher about presenting incorrect information?
What do I look for while observing the student teacher? How do I
conduct an effective conference? How should I plan a seminar?
University supervisors will gain a better understanding of their
own role and responsibilities in working with student and
cooperating teachers as well as an appreciation of the work of the
cooperating teacher. Likewise, student and cooperating teachers
will gain similar understandings.
