商品簡介
Marzano, an education researcher, speaker, trainer, and author, Frontier (doctoral leadership studies and teacher education, Cardinal Strich U.), and Livingston, a former principal who researches leadership and school improvement, show school and district-level administrators how to supervise teachers effectively. They trace the changes that have occurred in supervision and leadership in US education history, then detail an approach that focuses on enhancing teachers' pedagogical skills and therefore student achievement, which entails five conditions that must be met to develop teacher expertise: a well-articulated knowledge base, focused feedback and practice, opportunities to observe and discuss expertise, clear criteria and a plan for success, and recognition of expertise.
