Revised edition of the classic book on teacher supervision and evaluation Includes thoughts on iPad and iPhone aps for classroom observation Offers new chart on how principals can manage ten mini-observations per teacher per year Contains new thoughts on merit pay, a different approach to the test-score argument from Arne Duncan This vital resource also includes extensive tools and advice for managing time as well as ideas for using supervision and evaluation practices to foster teacher professional development.
Managing Social Service Staff for Excellence. Five Keys to Exceptional Supervision
Автор: Nancy Summers
Год издания:
An essential guide for those charged with supervision of nonclinical staffin programs, agencies, and units within social service organizations «As someone who has worked in social service agencies, consulted with hundreds of them, and who teaches social service professionals, Ms. Summers knows the issues faced by agencies firsthand. From this experience she has compiled a thoughtful and well-organized text that identifies the principles of effective supervision.» —Samuel Knapp, EdD Director of Professional Affairs, Pennsylvania Psychological Association From the Foreword The care of patients and clients of social service agencies is increasingly being performed by paraprofessionals or professionals with little experience. While there are many books written about giving quality clinical supervision, there is very little on supervising the least experienced frontline nonclinical and clinical staff to teach and promote positive and effective interaction with clients, and provide staff support and training that elevates quality care, improves job satisfaction, and minimizes staff turnover. Based on author Nancy Summers' many years of working with troubled social service agencies, Managing Social Service Staff for Excellence: Five Keys to Exceptional Supervision fills this need and offers numerous ideas for securing the best care for those served by social service agencies. Common problems faced by agencies are examined with regard to employee behavior and wellness, including staff teamwork, how to build healthy staff/client relationships, and the identification and prevention of routine disrespect of clients and their needs. Diagnostic techniques are presented for identifying these problems, as well as remedies and prevention programs that can be put in place without great expense. Filled with interviews and numerous case examples, Managing Social Service Staff for Excellence offers a step-by-step process for: creating good preventive measures to counteract negative practices that can occur; developing robust commitment and enthusiasm; and getting back on the right track after unfortunate incidents have taken place.

Автор: Monika Weissgerber
Год издания:
Sprache, Stil und Grammatik sind keine Geheimwissenschaft! Das Buch richtet sich an Angehorige technischer Berufe und Informatiker, die Berichte, Anleitungen, Prasentationen, Texte fur Webseiten, Schulungsunterlagen usw. verfassen mussen und dabei – gelegentlich oder regelma?ig – mit den Tucken der deutschen Sprache kampfen. Das Buch zeigt Fehler und Schwachen, wie sie haufig in technischen Texten vorkommen, und hilft dabei, sie kunftig zu vermeiden. Es bietet Selbsttests und Ubungen, deren Losungen in einem speziellen Kapitel zusammengefasst sind. Au?erdem behandelt es Bestandteile von Publikationen wie Uberschriften, Inhaltsverzeichnisse oder Stichwortverzeichnisse, die ebenfalls oft mangelhaft formuliert und gestaltet sind. Wo Fachbegriffe verwendet werden, sind diese verstandlich erklart, und trotz des fundierten Inhalts ist das Buch klar formuliert und leicht zu lesen. Damit eignet sich das Buch nicht nur fur Praktiker, sondern ebenso fur die Ausbildung.
