COST FACTORS & QUALITY FAILURE

• "4 Key Contributors to Leadership Failure" - By Duncan Brodie

• Contributor 1: Unable to Adapt

• Contributor 2: Unwilling to act on feedback

• Contributor 3: Unable to listen

• Contributor 4: Being critical of others

SUPERVISOR & CONTROL

• control is a term originating in military organization theory, but now used more commonly in business management, particularly human resource management. Span of control refers to the number of subordinates a supervisor has.

INTSRUCTOR MOTIVATION & EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT EFFECTIVENESS

Shared governance, or participatory management, enhances teachers'

professional status and their "ownership" in the planning and operation of

the school. Thus, shared governance gives teachers a vested interest in

school performance and also promotes harmony and trust among teachers

and administrators. The results of such cooperation can be dramatic: in

Salt Lake City, a shared governance policy enacted eight years ago enabled

teachers and administrators jointly to develop a districtwide accountability

plan, an evaluation/remediation process, a salary progression program,

and a curriculum reform which emphasized basic skills.

MASOW THEORY & NTSRUCTORS

• Love & Belongingteacher personality: empathetic,

considerate & interested in the individual, patient, fair, able to self-disclose, positive attitude, good listener

develop new knowledge based on background knowledge so as to help ensure success (scaffolding)

develop a classroom environment where students are positive & nonjudgmental

SIGNIFICANCE OF AUTONOMY• Some of the most well known

definitions in present literature are:• 'Autonomy is the ability to take charge

of one's own learning' (Henri Holec • 'Autonomy is essentially a matter of

the learner's psychological relation to the process and content of learning' (David Little)

• 'Autonomy is a situation in which the learner is totally responsible for all the decisions concerned with his [or her] learning and the implementation of those decisions'. (Leslie Dickinson)

• 'Autonomy is a recognition of the rights of learners within educational systems'. (Phil Benson)

EFFECTIVENESS IN ACHIEVMENTInstructor Motives

• Education must build on the relationship between the instructor and student.

• Fenton and O'Leary (1) suggested that educators focus on mutual communication.

• For learning to take place, a dissemination of information from instructor to student and student to instructor must occur. This communication process is often where the learning breakdown occurs.

• Communication occurs when a message is received and understood in the manner intended.

• (2) Miscommunication results when the communication skills of the sender or receiver are lacking. Effective communication includes the ability to read and comprehend information, the ability to express ideas effectively in written and spoken form, and the ability to listen attentively. (3) An instructor's verbal, nonverbal and listening skills greatly influence student achievement and retention.

MOTIVATION HYGIENE & EXPECTANCY THEORIES

The two-factor theory (also known as Herzberg's motivation-hygiene theory) states that there are certain factors in the workplace that cause job satisfaction, while a separate set of factors cause dissatisfaction. It was developed by Frederick Herzberg, a psychologist, who theorized that job satisfaction and job dissatisfaction act independently of each other.

Two-factor theory distinguishes between:Motivators (e.g., challenging work, recognition, responsibility) that give positive satisfaction, arising from intrinsic conditions of the job itself, such as recognition, achievement, or personal growth andHygiene factors (e.g. status, job security, salary and fringe benefits) that do not give positive satisfaction, though dissatisfaction results from their absence. These are extrinsic to the work itself, and include aspects such as company policies, supervisory practices, or wages/salary.

JOB ENRICHMENT IN TEACHING• Job enrichment is the process of

enhancing job satisfaction and fulfillment by reforming the roles and duties that an employee carries out on a day to day basis. Too many employees are trapped in unrewarding and monotonous jobs that offer little or no professional satisfaction.

• It is particularly common among primary and secondary occupations that involve the repetition of tasks and little or no responsibility. The absence of job fulfillment and consequently enrichment, can often lead to anxiety and unhappiness among the workforce which ultimately affects employee performance

STAFF DEVT. PROGRAM, GROUP MEETINGS & LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE

• Support for beginning teachers is often uneven and inadequate. Even if well prepared, new teachers often are assigned to the most challenging schools and classes with little supervision and support. Nearly half of all teachers leave the profession in their first five years, so more attention must be paid to providing them with early and adequate support, especially if they are assigned to demanding school environments.

• It is critical for veteran teachers to have ongoing and regular opportunities to learn from each other. Ongoing professional development keeps teachers up-to-date on new research on how children learn, emerging technology tools for the classroom, new curriculum resources, and more. The best professional development is ongoing, experiential, collaborative, and connected to and derived from working with students and understanding their culture.

ORIENTATION IS A SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

The best teacher-preparation programs emphasize subject-matter mastery and provide many opportunities for student teachers to spend time in real classrooms under the supervision of an experienced mentor. Just as professionals in medicine, architecture, and law have opportunities to learn through examining case studies, learning best practices, and participating in internships, exemplary teacher-preparation programs allow teacher candidates the time to apply their learning of theory in the context of teaching in a real classroom.

THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING

• Mentoring and coaching from veteran colleagues is critical to the successful development of a new teacher. Great induction programs create opportunities for novice teachers to learn from best practices and analyze and reflect on their teaching.

METHODS OF TRAINING

Planning & Observing Teaching Learning Situations

• Trend in Classroom Visitations Type & Length of Visit

• To enhance the professional effectiveness of the teaching staff administrators must be skilled in these areas:

• (a) what to evaluate, (b) how to observe and analyze classroom observation information and other data, and (c) how to translate the results of observations and the summary of data into meaningful conference feedback that guides and encourages teachers to improve instruction.

Planning the Supervisory Observation

• Through the effective supervision of instruction, administrators can reinforce and enhance teaching practices that will contribute to improved student learning.

• By skillfully analyzing performance and appropriate data, administrators can provide meaningful feedback and direction to teachers that can have a profound effect on the learning that occurs in each classroom.

• Supervision of instruction must be built on the observer's thorough understanding and in-depth knowledge of instructional theory, not on a check list of what should be in a lesson

  Conferences throughout the year

provide a to communicate the evaluation of the teacher's performance. Decisions shared during the conference are based upon the data collected through observations, review of documents, and interviews that relate to the assessment and evaluation of the teacher's ability to meet the requirements as adopted by the local district governing board.

Contents of the Supervisory Plan• A Supervision Visit Plan is a list of

the activities that you will observe and all the information you will collect during a supervisory visit.

• An effective and thorough supervisory visit requires planning. Because your time is limited, it is impossible to supervise everything all the time. The key to effective supervision is to supervise selectively. This means that you need to identify critical activities to supervise routinely, and other activities to supervise less often.

• Core tasks: Activities that are so important that they should be observed during every supervisory session.

• Selected tasks: Important activities that are covered less frequently or on a rotating basis.

• Program support activities: Activities that you must perform during each visit, such as replenishment of supplies, checking records, collecting information,

Observing The Teaching Learning Process

• suggests that teachers need to start with an understanding of where the learner is in terms of their learning, the level they have reached, past experience, and understanding of learning needs and goals

• As part of the overall planning process for a teaching session you will have defined the aims of the session, the learning outcomes or objectives and possibly an assessment (see the ‘Setting educational objectives’ module for more detail on these aspects).

The Bases for Supervision• Knowledge to be valued as the most

important power, • A vision which is shared with correct

principles and basic values to be identified with a participatory understanding,

• Decision and administrative processes to be organized with a democratic and participatory understanding,

• Business success to be measured by objective measures and indicators,

• Freedom based creativity to be supported,

• An organizational culture education in which the successful people will be important and valuable,

Child Growth Basis for Observation

• Systematic classroom observation is a quantitative method of measuring classroom behaviors from direct observations that specifies both the events or behaviors that are to be observed and how they are to be recorded.

Good Teaching & Learning the Basis for Observation

• Generally, the data that is collected from this procedure focuses on the frequency with which specific behaviors or types of behavior occurred in the classroom and measures their duration. There are several elements that are common to most observational systems.

Democratic Classroom Procedure Basis for Observation

Administrators and classroom teachers acknowledge that effective, successful teaching requires two dynamics: process and structure. By process, we mean the interpersonal relationship between the teacher and student as reflected in the educator’s verbal and non-verbal interactions with the student, within and outside the classroom.

Developmental and educational psychologists have described the dynamics most salient in teacher-student processes, such as attitudes of caring and concern, respect, empathy, effective communication skills, knowledge and understanding of adolescent emotional and cognitive dynamics as well as maturity of judgment. The structure of teaching relates to structural elements like particular curriculum goals and structure, didactic methods, classroom teaching strategies—both formal and informal—and classroom management policies.

Strengthening School Community Relationships as Administrative & Supervisory Function

In biological terms, a community is a group of interacting organisms (or different species) sharing an environment. In human communities, intent, belief, resources, preferences, needs, risks, and a number of other conditions may be present and common, affecting the identity of the participants and their degree of cohesiveness.

In supervision and administration to a certain degree it forms as the act of involving all these elements for purposes of making the school function within these desired aims

Community School Concept

The advocacy to teach non-Tagalog languages to save them from dying and extinction had to be founded on Filipino educational philosophy and practices. And one of the original thinkers in Philippine education is Pedro T. Orata. Pangasinan educator Dr. Pedro T. Orata on the teaching of the mother tongue in the classroom.

Against the background of Orata’s philosophy on education, it discusses Orata’s view on the community school and its implications towards multilingual education in the Philippines.

The Need for Support of the Public Schools

Is now becoming a trend which caters to school’s ability for funds of other outside help that would best benefit the school and its programs

Sample agencies are the EU, WORLD BANK, ADB, ASEAN, APEC, and other such similar international cooperations

Purposes of School Community Relations

An effective educational leader promotes the success of all students by communicating the learning community’s vision, policies, and successes to staff, students, parents, community, decision makers, legislators and media.

The leader understands, responds to, and influences the systems that support the educational process. Developing and maintaining partnerships and forging relationships with multiple constituent groups, understanding emerging issues and educational trends and communicating them effectively to stakeholders are all essential leadership competencies.
