EDU 679 - Evaluation and Supervision of Teaching

This course is focused on evaluating and supervising teaching performance. EDU 679 offers a framework of supervisory concepts and asks students to apply these concepts to the settings and clientele they would likely encounter from elementary through adult education. A major course goal is for students to acquire the knowledge and skills required for effective supervision and evaluation of teachers and other school personnel so that student achievement is enhanced. Students will conduct multiple clinical supervision sequences (e.g., mini-observations, walkthroughs, classroom observations, etc.) in an educational setting using various data-gathering tools and techniques, align these observations to various professional standards, and practice their feedback and questioning skills.
