Contemporary Supervision, Its Principles and Practices

Solomon W Luckie, Fordham University

Abstract

Constructive supervision means the ability to improve and to develop teachers; to give to them encouragement and aid in their particular work; to give them advice as to better ways and methods of carrying on their work, and most important, to inspire them with confidence in themselves and enthusiasm for the work of instruction.Any agency that makes for better vision, greater enthusiasm, and clearer understanding in the teaching corps is making abundant contribution to the realization of the end which the definition of constructive supervision embodies. The modern conception of supervision is constructive and makes for a high degree of teaching efficiency. It implies the guidance of the teacher to those higher levels of achievements on the part of the supervisor, whether he be called superintendent, principal, grade or departmental supervisor, critic.
